Suvendu Adhikari, a prominent leader of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), made a strong statement on April 27, calling for the Trinamool Congress (TMC) to be designated as a terrorist organization. Adhikari’s demand came in response to the Central Bureau of Investigation’s (CBI) discovery of arms and ammunition during a search operation at two locations connected to Shahjahan Sheikh, an alleged associate of Sandeshkhali accused. Adhikari highlighted that the weapons found in Sandeshkhali were not only of foreign origin but also included explosives like RDX, which are commonly used in heinous anti-national activities.
Adhikari further emphasized that the recovered weapons were typically utilized by international terrorists, suggesting a grave threat to national security. By calling for the TMC to be designated as a terrorist organization, Adhikari aimed to draw attention to the alleged involvement of the ruling party in such activities. This demand reflects the escalating political tensions between the BJP and the TMC in West Bengal, where both parties have been engaged in a fierce battle for power.
The discovery of arms and ammunition in connection with an alleged associate of Shahjahan Sheikh has raised concerns about the extent of illegal activities and potential links to terrorism in the region. Adhikari’s demand for the TMC to be designated as a terrorist organization adds fuel to the already heated political atmosphere in West Bengal.

By associating the TMC with terrorism, Adhikari hopes to undermine their credibility and gain an advantage in the ongoing political battle.
However, it is important to note that the TMC has vehemently denied any involvement in illegal activities or terrorism. They have dismissed Adhikari’s demand as baseless and politically motivated. The TMC argues that the BJP is resorting to such tactics to tarnish their image and gain an upper hand in the upcoming elections.
The demand to designate the TMC as a terrorist organization has sparked a heated debate in West Bengal, with supporters and opponents of both parties engaging in a war of words. The political landscape in the state has become increasingly polarized, and this latest development is likely to further deepen the divide.
