Suvendu Adhikari alleges CPI(M) and Mamata-led TMC have joined hands to create unrest in Bengal

PTI, Oct 31, 2026, Garbeta: Chief Minister Suvendu Adhikari on Saturday alleged that the CPI(M) and the Mamata-led All India Trinamool Congress have come together to create anarchy in West Bengal.

Adhikari said this was happening because of the "new-found bonhomie" between CPI(M) general secretary M A Baby and former CM Mamata Banerjee.

Asserting that the CPI(M) and the Mamata faction of the TMC had become "brothers-in-arms", the Chief Minister said: "The two parties have come together to bring back the days of anarchy."

He alleged that the CPI(M) was "trying to spread its wings" by taking advantage of the split in the Trinamool Congress following the Assembly elections.

Criticising CPI(M) state secretary Mohammad Salim, the Chief Minister said: "You had the temerity to state in Garbeta some days back that people resisted when the BJP came to attack the CPI(M)."

Adhikari said he would reopen the criminal cases against all those who allegedly went from the Garbeta CPI(M) office to carry out an armed attack in Nandigram during the 2007 anti-land acquisition agitation, and those involved in the massacre of TMC supporters in Choto Angaria village in Garbeta in 2001.

"No one will be spared," the CM asserted while addressing a 'Save Democracy' public meeting at Garbeta in Paschim Medinipur district, which is part of the Jangalmahal region that was affected by a Maoist movement during the Left Front rule in the state.

Noting that the BJP government in West Bengal was just six months old, he said the saffron party had won by huge margins in two by-elections in Rejinagar and Nandigram and the Falta repoll.

"In the coming civic polls in Kolkata and Howrah, the Mamata Trinamool and its friend, the red party (CPI-M), who want to create unrest in India, will be demolished by the people," he said.
