Kolkata: A fierce debate is going on in West Bengal these days, just prior to the Assembly Elections 
in the State: why has the land of legendary scientists, writers, educationists, Bollywood celebrities gone weak and senile recently? The land that gave India revolutionary Khudiram Bose, Gurudev Rabindranath Tagore, Satyajit Ray, Prof. BC Roy, and hundreds of revolutionaries in the 19th and 20th centuries, is gone down into a quagmire of political confusion and mismanagement under the previous Communist and TMC govts during the last five to six decades.
An election observer, veteran IITian and former Navy Commander VK Jaitly met hundreds of commoners in the state reccently and observed the dismay among all sections of the Society, who are feeling deprived of their livelyhood, housing, food, medical services etc. being snatched away from them and given to the lakhs of infilterators ; illegal Bangladeshis and Rohingiyas, who are the vote banks of the ruling TMC, Leftist and Congress leaders in the frey.
Cdr. Jaitly accompanied with Dantan BJP MLA candidate Ajit Kumar Jana were served a complementary cup of tea each, at the Modi Tea Stall, when they visited village Sat Pakuria in Dantun, Dist West Medinapur, the birthplace of legendary Khudiram Bose, who had attempted an assassination on British Judge Doughlus Kingsford in April 1908. The Free Chai by Modi Tea Stall by an ordinary citizen in a small village for all the passers by during the election festival speaks a lot about the respect our PM Modi has earned among the rural people of Bengal.
Commander VK Jaitly also met the popular MP of Baleshwar area PC Sarangi ji, a dedicated public servant, who continues to live in a thatched roof mud house even after two tenures as MLA, has been a Union Minister and MP 2nd time now. He still rides a bicycle in his village for short distances. Still a bachelor, he has been an RSS Pracharak, found out our correspondent in the village.
The crowds for the local BJP candidate in this constituency are a signal to the existing Trinmool government. People seemed to be looking for a change now. The BJP candidate Ajit Kumar Jana also has his roots in RSS and was a full time Pracharak for 12 years and he developed his friendship with Commander VK Jaitly when he was doing M.Tech as an Indian Navy sponsored candidate from IIT Kharagpur. Both of them were involved with Gopali Vanvasi Kalyan Ashram just adjacent to IIT Kharagpur and continue to be connected with this noble mission. (In the picture above are BJP Candidate Ajit Kumar Jana on the Right and Kaushal Sinha, Sr. RSS Stalwart from Kharagpur with Cdr. Jaitly in the middle). —-Editor
