Suvendu Adhikari Visits Kali Puja Hosted by Mamata Banerjee's Estranged Brother
West Bengal Chief Minister Suvendu Adhikari visited a Kali Puja organized by Mamata Banerjee's estranged brother, Swapan (Babun) Banerjee, near Mamata's residence in Kolkata. Babun warmly welcomed Adhikari, garlanding him and expressing support, highlighting a public family rift. Adhikari's visit, amid recent political tensions following clashes between BJP and Trinamool Congress supporters, was seen as a display of strength in Mamata's political stronghold. Mamata Banerjee's residence remained closed during the event.
