TMC Minister's 'Will Break Legs' Threat To Poll Panel & BJP Over CAA | S.I.R News

This special report focuses on the inflammatory remarks by West Bengal Urban Development Minister and Kolkata Mayor, Firhad Hakim, who threatened to 'break the legs' of the BJP and the Election Commission. Hakim stated that he would 'break the legs of the BJP and the election commission if the special intensive revision or the citizenship amendment act are implemented in the state of West Bengal.' The controversy erupted over the proposed implementation of the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) and the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls, a comprehensive door-to-door verification of voter lists. The BJP has strongly condemned the threat, with party leader Rupa Ganguly stating it exemplifies the culture of 'hooliganism' under the Trinamool Congress government and creates fear among people. The incident has heightened political tensions in the state, with the opposition accusing the TMC of intimidating constitutional bodies and subverting democratic processes.
