Suvendu Adhikari in Ghatal: BJP Promises Flood Relief
The leader of the opposition, Suvendu Adhikari, went to a town called Ghatal that was flooded.
He blamed the current government for not fixing the flooding problem and only talking about it during elections.
He said if his party wins, they will finally start a plan to control the floods.
This plan has been promised before but never done.
He's also planning an event for Independence Day in the flooded areas to help people and make his party look good.
Suvendu Adhikari visited flood-hit Ghatal, criticizing the ruling party's handling of the situation.
Adhikari accused the TMC of using the Ghatal Master Plan for electoral gain and neglecting the area.
He promised to implement the Ghatal Master Plan if the BJP wins the 2026 Assembly elections.
