Amid rising political tensions in West Bengal over Ramnavami celebrations, senior BJP leader Dilip Ghosh has stirred controversy with his latest remark. Reacting to allegations of processions carrying weapons during the festivities, Ghosh stated, “If they carried weapons, what’s the crime?” – a comment that has intensified the ongoing war of words between the ruling TMC and the BJP.Ghosh defended the traditional practices associated with Ramnavami processions, claiming that carrying arms is part of the culture and symbolism linked to Lord Ram’s legacy. His statement comes in the backdrop of violence and clashes reported in certain parts of the state during Ramnavami processions, prompting both political and legal scrutiny.The Trinamool Congress (TMC) has condemned Ghosh’s statement, accusing the BJP of promoting aggression and communal provocation. Meanwhile, BJP leaders argue that TMC is attempting to suppress Hindu traditions and sentiments.This is not the first time Dilip Ghosh has courted controversy with his outspoken views, but his latest remark has triggered strong reactions across the political spectrum and raised concerns over law and order during religious events.Authorities remain on high alert, and the issue is expected to escalate in the coming days with calls for accountability and action.
