Declare TMC a 'terrorist organisation': Subhendu Adhikari over Sandeshkhali arms haul

The recent CBI raid in Sandeshkhali has stirred a political row amid the ongoing Lok Sabha elections, with BJP demading TMC to be declared as a terrorist organisation and TMC on the other end accusing BJP of conspiring with CBI-NSG in the raid on Friday. 

"We don’t know what has been recovered or not. Whatever the CBI is saying, we doubt it. The matter should be probed properly. The BJP is using central agencies to malign us. It can be a sinister ploy by the BJP to malign us during elections. It can be a well-designed campaign by the BJP," TMC state general secretary Kunal Ghosh said.

The CBI said in a statement that it had recovered three foreign-made revolvers, one foreign-made pistol, one Indian revolver, one Colt official issue police revolver, one country-made pistol, 120 nine mm bullets, 50 cartridges of .45 calibre, 50 cartridges of .380, and eight cartridges of .32 bore.

On this, Senior BJP leader Amit Malviya said the arms haul is nothing but an act of terror, waging war against the nation. Meanwhile, BJP LoP, Subhendu Adhikari demanded that the Trinamool Congress (TMC), led by Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee, be declared a terrorist organisation.

“All the weapons found in Sandeshkhali are foreign. Explosives like RDX are used in horrific anti-national activities. All these weapons are used by international terrorists, I demand to declare Trinamool Congress as a terrorist organisation," Adhikario said. 

The TMC retaliated by filing a complaint with the Election Commission of India against the CBI, alleging collusion between the BJP-led central government, CBI, and NSG in orchestrating the raid.
