Listened to Hon'ble HM @AmitShah'Ji's speech yesterday at Dharmatala, Kolkata.

Following are the points which may instill hope in the people of the hapless State.

1) He remembered the founder of Jana Sangha Syamaprasad Mookerjee & his Father Sir Ashutosh in the beginning. This is heartening as BJP won't be able to do justice to West Bengal w/o carrying forward the legacy of SPM.

2) HM mentioned rampant infiltration through West Bengal border while infiltration through Assam & Tripura border is being curbed by both BSF & State Police YUGALBANDI.

The Singur-slip of West Bengal Govt

A 🧵

Why was Mamata Banerjee's opportunist movement became successful to destroy West Bengal's Singur hope?

Why was CPM screwed up in there?

In brevity, it was Jyoti Basu's legacy that both screwed up CPM & brought in success for Mamata. Jyoti Basu's "land reform" model "Operation Barga" (post 1977) had broken the spine of West Bengal reducing the wealth of ALL.

Lands of large land owners were captured by the Left Front Govt under Jyoti Basu distributing those large plots into smaller ones letting small farmers

West Bengal Govt filed review petition in #CalcuttaHighCourt

They don't want Central Forces in all districts for #PanchayatElection2023

This was expected & spoke on this yesterday in this video👇



In presence of Central Forces, manipulating d poll turns difficult for administrative machinery

Also note, State Election Commissioner Rajiva Sinha stated yesterday that SEC would comply with the #CalcuttaHighCourt order

But GoWB didn't admit it & filed review petition

To intimidate people & curb their fundamental right to personal liberty & freedom of expression both TMC & CPM are applying the same mechanism

2018 act by TMC

Before Pachayat Election 2018, Biplob Mondal, a TOI photographer clicked a few photos of the nomination proceedings in his phone in front of a South 24 Parganas administrative building on April 9.

Group of men physically forced him to delete all photos,took him to a village,stripped him naked, took his nude shots & threatened him they’d make them viral if he wrote anything about what he saw

West Bengal CM's Bhaipo's alleged benaamdaar "Kalighater Kaku" revealing facts to ED (as per sources)

In front of the media he said, if Adani can have money, why can't I?

Kaku originally had an inconspicuous grocery-shop in Behala

Yesterday, even Sougata Roy of #TMC, reacting to #PMModi's "cash for job" statement, asked how many jobs did Adanis offer?

Indicates, TMC trying to equate themselves with the industrialist group Adani

But TMC ≠ Adani

Had TMC been Adani, they would have been Adani from before 2011, not after—

Had TMC been Adani,

Why I stand with #AshwiniVaishnaw & want only him to work as the Railway Minister even if he is kept shared in many other Ministries👇

He himself is an Engineer and a Management Professional

This is a super combination when it comes to conceptualizing a project & making a plan of implementation of the same

He is an educated, successful technocrat with proven track record as he has served the industry before becoming a Minister in the Govt of India

He is fast revamping Indian Railways under the visionary leadership of Prime Minister #NarendraModi

1. Yesterday, while West Bengal CM (with doubtful basic educational credentials) was demanding resignation of the fine technocrat Railway Minister of India,

her State Govt went to the #SupremeCourt appealing for a stay on the #CalcuttaHighCourt order of CBI probe of #recruitmentscam in West Bengal's municipalities too

WB expected a fast hearing of such appeal

Supreme Court rapped them

Said, no fast hearing,not before July 3

Added that the accused people in such scam could have come, but how could the State Govt appear to halt such probe?

1. LoP Suvendu Adhikari tweeted West Bengal Chief Secretary Harikrishna Dwivedi was present in yesterday's meeting b/w WB CM, Delhi CM, Punjab CM & other legislators of Delhi (photo courtsey: LoP)

He was the only BUREAUCRAT in a meeting of legislators of different States

As I 2. keenly observe, I humbly try to decode

such apparently disturbing actions

WB CM reigning West Bengal predominantly by misusing the State't bureaucrats & police

TMC partymen are just there to showcase the presence of a party

Such police & bureaucrats misuse the loopholes of

West Bengal CM's nephew reached Supreme Court against #calcuttahighcourt order allowing CBI/ED to interrogate him w.r.t. #recruitmentscam imposing ₹25 lac penalty for lodging flimsy cases

Nephew's lawyer Abhishek Manu Singhvi placed the case in SC Justice Aniruddha Basu's bench Justice Basu, once close to TMC MLA Manik Bhattacharyya who is another accused in the #recruitmentscam & now in jail

AM Singhvi 'managed' the 'right' bench?

Wud Justice Aniruddha Basu put a 'stay' on d #calcuttahighcourt order?

While ED/CBI has n number of facts against him?

1. Manoj Pant Finance Secretary West Bengal stated in para 5 of his affidavit to #calcuttahighcourt that remitting #DearnessAllowance wud be "beyond the financial capacity of the State Govt."

As DA an inseparable part of d salary,this statement is a "breach of contract" by GOWB. 2. Why "breach of contract"?

Salary money is committed from before (a contract) which cannot be reduced with time.

As money is a negotiable instrument, Govt actually commits commodities in lieu of that committed salary amount.

As inflation occurs, DA is remitted as the

#pinarayivijayan said he won't implement #CAA in #Kerala. Before him #MamataBanerjee said the same thing for #WestBengal. What these CMs are saying is not just rhetorical but meaningful. + In all other cases of Citizenship by Registration and/or Naturalization, applicants have to liaise with MHA GOI via State DMs & the State Secretariat where it is possible for the State to sabotage & block applicants. +

1. All other parameters remaining same, #Article356 is ❌an apt solution for #WestBengal (IMHO🙏) but making WB a Union Territory using provision of #Article3 is ✅. Wrote a thread on it yesterday that got distorted of sequential order.

Here it is again with some addenda.👇 2. After application of #Article356 upon any State, it is Constitutionally mandatory to hold State Assembly Election earliest after 6 months & latest after 3 years.Keeping this in mind it is necessary to note that in wß, as long as d present pø)içé+ßūreacrst+MB combination exists

A Thread on Income Tax and Middle Class

1. #UnionBudget2022 placed. Apart from several excellent proposals and measures suggested in order to achieve sustainable growth of National economy, government suggested no change in the existing income tax rates and exemptions. This is 2. exactly where d typical middle class, generally unaware of the intricate details of economics, remain interested. This is exactly the issue which concerns them the most and this is what they treat as yardstick to measure the extent of concern the government shows towards them.

IMHO different tax slabs required for salaried people & professionals. @nsitharaman

Professionals, entrepreneurs have ways to show expenditure while filing IT return. Earning 20 showing 6 is a go. Such scope absent for salaried people comprising 80% of IT payers.#UnionBudget2022 Most of these salaried IT payers are middle class people. #UnionBudget2022 should have brought tax relief to this segment.

GOI does not seem empathetic towards service holder middle class.

1. A must read thread to understand #WestBengalViolence

Statistical projections were done on two sets of given data.
I: Average voter turnout as per ECI was 75%
II: Religious demography of #WestBengal as extrapolated from 2011 Census data i.e WB has 67% Hindus, 31% Muslims & 2. 2%—other faiths.

Thru' statistical projections frm given data & certain assumptions regarding factors whr exact data were not available, % of votes casted appeared to be distributed as follows.

Hindus 45%,Muslims 29%
&Others 1%—Total 75% (approx voter turnout—ECI) #Bengal

1. Did @TheLancet turn into a political magazine?

The esteemed medical journal may please note that media like @AJEnglish, @nytimes r perhaps misleading them.

India has already vaccinated 9.8% of her population with at least 1 dose & has fully vaccinated
indianexpress.com/article/india/… 2. 2.5% people which is more than half the total population of UK.

Means India has fully vaccinated 3 Crores 41 lacs 27 thousand 375 people.

OTOH, UK has reportedly fully vaccinated 25.8% of her population which is only 1 Crore 72 lacs 14 thousand 436.

1. #WestBengal CM ঘোষণা করেছেন 8000 পুরোহিতকে মাসে 1000 টাকা করে ভাতা দেবেন। অর্থাৎ 1 জন পুরোহিত বছরে পেতে পারবেন সর্বোচ্চ 12,000 টাকা। এইভাবে 8000 পুরোহিতকে ভাতা দিতে রাজ্যের মোট খরচ হবে 96,000,000 টাকা বা নয় কোটি ষাট লক্ষ টাকা। 2. দেখা যাক্, WB'র কতজন ইমাম মাসে কতটাকা করে ভাতা পেয়ে থাকেন?

2013'র তথ্য অনুযায়ী রাজ্যের 30,000 ইমাম মাসে 2500 টাকা করে, আর 15000 মোয়াজ্জেম মাসে 1500 টাকা করে ভাতা পেয়ে থাকেন।

অর্থাৎ ইমামভাতার পিছনে গত 2013 তেই রাজ্যের খরচ ছিল বছরে 90,0000,000 টাকা বা নব্বই কোটি টাকা। আর
