BJP moves President Ram Nath Kovind over West Bengal Murders

New Delhi: A BJP delegation on Tuesday sought President Ram Nath Kovind’s intervention over the brutal Jiaganj triple murders in West Bengal.

The delegation comprised the Bharatiya Janata Party’s Bengal in-charge Kailash Vijaywargiya, Mukul Roy, Swapan Dasgupta and SS Ahluwalia.

Coming out of the President’s House here, Vijayvargiya said: “We have apprised the President of the situation in Bengal. We haven’t asked for a President’s Rule. But we have informed what our cadres are going through”.

Sources have said that the delegation was also seeking an appointment with Union Home Minister Amit Shah. Three members of a family — Bandhuprakash Pal, his wife Beauty and their 8-year-old son Angan — were found killed in their house at Jiaganj in the Murshidabad district of West Bengal on October 8.

The police have detained four people in connection with the murders.

The BJP and the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) have claimed that Bandhuprakash had been attending RSS weekly programme Milan over the past few months.

The police have, however, ruled out any political angle in the case. (IANS)
