West Bengal Chief Minister Suvendu Adhikari on Monday announced the formation of two judicial commissions to investigate serious allegations against the previous Trinamool Congress (TMC) government. The commissions, each headed by a former High Court judge, will probe allegations of atrocities against women and children, as well as institutional corruption and misappropriation of funds during the TMC's tenure.
Commissions to Start Work from June 1
Speaking to the media, CM Adhikari stated that both commissions will commence their operations from June 1. The decision underscores the new government's commitment to ensuring accountability and justice for the people of West Bengal.
Police Actions on Post-Poll Violence
In a parallel development, the state police have intensified their investigation into the 2021 post-poll violence. Authorities have launched 458 new inquiries, registered 181 fresh First Information Reports (FIRs), and reopened 59 cases where final closure reports had already been submitted. This move aims to address the widespread violence and unrest that followed the assembly elections.
The formation of the judicial commissions and the renewed police efforts reflect the government's determination to uphold the rule of law and deliver justice to victims of alleged crimes.
