Suvendu Adhikari Responds to Abhishek Banerjee's Warning to Police in West Bengal
West Bengal Chief Minister Suvendu Adhikari responded to TMC MP Abhishek Banerjee's warning to police against framing party workers by suggesting Banerjee was incoherent due to a sodium-potassium imbalance. Adhikari claimed an aide of Banerjee, recently arrested, had revealed information against him, which unsettled the MP. Banerjee had cautioned police officers about false cases and demanded arrests related to a fatal Durga Puja stampede. Adhikari made his remarks during a public grievance session at the BJP office in Salt Lake.
