Hindu Suraksha Samiti's Agenda and BJP's Grassroots Expansion in West Bengal
In West Bengal, the Hindu Suraksha Samiti, led by Avijit Das, advocates for a 'Hindu Homeland' with exclusive rights for Hindus, including calls against Muslims and demands for land and job control. Meanwhile, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) is actively expanding its grassroots presence through training workshops aimed at increasing local support and voter engagement. The BJP's efforts contrast with tensions involving the Trinamool Congress, which has faced attacks on party offices and leaders amid political rivalry in the state.
