BJP national vice-president Dilip Ghosh will lead a rally from College Street in Kolkata. He will be accompanied by MP Jagannath Sarkar and party leaders Dipak Barman and Priyanka Tibrewal. Leader of Opposition in state Assembly Suvendu Adhikari will lead the third rally from Santragachi in Howrah district. Party MPs Saumitra Khan, Locket Chatterjee and Kunar Hembram will accompany him.
Party’s central observer for West Bengal Sunil Bansal held an organisational meeting with the state leadership on Friday to finalise their plan on September 13. The route map of these rallies has been finalised and all leaders have been asked to mobilise support for the march. Workers from across the state will take part in the protests.
Bansal and other leaders visited the starting points of the 3 rallies. “We will turn this into a mass rally. The state government has no moral right to remain in power. Their leaders are involved in scams and must be punished in the court of law,” Ghosh said.
