Kolkata News: Suvendu Adhikari, the Leader of Opposition (LoP) in the West Bengal Assembly, filed a request for a postponement of a Trinamool Congress rally on January 22 with the Calcutta High Court.
Adhikari also asked the High Court to intervene in his case, requesting that military personnel be stationed throughout the state to uphold law and order on a day that falls on the same as the Ram Temple Pran Pratishtha celebration in Ayodhya.
According to LoP, there have been violent incidents in West Bengal during several religious festivals, hence such safety measures are required. Adhikar’s appeal has been accepted by the division bench headed by Justice Harish Tandon, and a hearing is scheduled for this Thursday.
