Former Tripura Chief Minister and Lok Sabha MP Biplab Kumar Deb on Monday launched a sharp attack on the Trinamool Congress (TMC) government in West Bengal.
He accused Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee of failing to ensure women safety in Bengal and promised that the BJP would fight to protect women’s rights.
Biplab Deb Calls Out TMC
Speaking to reporters in Agartala, Deb expressed concern about rising crimes against women in Bengal.
“Women are not safe in Bengal. Under Mamata Banerjee’s rule, incidents of harassment, assault, and violence have increased,” Deb said.
He added that the BJP would raise its voice “inside and outside Parliament” until women feel secure in West Bengal.
Rising Concerns Over Women Safety in Bengal
Deb’s comments come amid recent reports of crimes against women in Bengal.
Several high-profile cases have attracted national attention.
Deb claimed that Mamata’s government is turning a blind eye to such issues.
“Instead of acting against culprits, TMC leaders try to cover up incidents. Women deserve better,” he said.
BJP Promises Action
Deb outlined the BJP’s plan to fight for women safety in Bengal.
He said the party would push for stronger laws and better policing.
He also promised support for victims.
“We will keep fighting until Bengal becomes safe for all women,” Deb stated.
TMC Responds On Women Safety
TMC leaders in Kolkata dismissed Deb’s statements.
They accused the BJP of playing politics and spreading misinformation.
A TMC spokesperson said Bengal remains one of the safest states for women.
“This is purely political propaganda. The state government takes swift action in all crime cases,” said the TMC leader.
Women’s Rights Groups Weigh In
Women’s rights activists have mixed views.
Some agree that crimes against women remain a serious issue.
Others warn that political blame games help no one.
Ananya Sen, a Kolkata-based activist, said:
“Women safety in Bengal needs more than speeches. We need real action, better police response, and social awareness.”
BJP Eyes Bengal Elections
Deb’s comments also have political significance.
The BJP has been working hard to expand its base in Bengal.
Attacking Mamata’s record on women’s safety is part of this strategy.
Political experts say women’s issues could become a key factor in the next Bengal elections.
Importance of Women’s Safety
Across India, women’s safety remains a major concern.
According to the National Crime Records Bureau (NCRB), crimes against women have risen in several states, including West Bengal.
Activists stress that both central and state governments must work together.
“No woman should feel unsafe in her own state,” said Ananya Sen.
The Road Ahead
Deb has vowed to keep speaking about women safety in Bengal.
He said the BJP would organize protests and public meetings to highlight the issue.
“This is not just a political fight. It’s about our mothers, sisters, and daughters,” Deb concluded.
Deb’s strong words have reignited debate about women’s safety in Bengal.
As political tensions rise, many hope real solutions will follow political promises.
