No eviction drive in Burrabazar & College Street, clarifies KMC Commissioner
The Assistant Sub-Inspector Bishwajit Chakraborty of Bangaon Police Station dies to head-on-collision with a recklessly speeding cargo vehicle while scooting home from his ancestral village in Chandpara. The incident caught the dedicated officer—known among colleagues for his unwavering commitment to duty.

Rushed to Bangaon Hospital, doctors confirms the death upon arrival, This wasn't just a statistic on a dangerous highway; it was a life cut short, robbing West Bengal's law enforcement of a man whose quiet resolve had steadied countless crises.

Chakraborty's journey had begun with simple familial warmth where he spent yesterday reconnecting with roots in Chandpara before setting off early to resume his duty over Bongaon's streets. The scooter's wreckage, a twisted testament to fleeting seconds, now stands as a grim reminder of Jessore Road's notorious perils—overcrowded with trucks, cargos lacking the barriers that could have blunted the blow—while preliminary probes point to the driver's callous speed as the spark, though fogging visibility and poor lighting may have fanned the flames of fate.

His family's anguish mirrors the broader toll of such tragedies in Bengal, where daily commutes gambles with death, claiming far too many unsung guardians. For the deceased cop, the road's cruel caprice ended a chapter of service, but his story resonates on as a clarion call—urging drivers to brake that protect us all, and reminding a rushing world that every ride deserves a homeward guarantee.
