Bengal Health Minister Orders Probe into Sebaashray Camp After Patient's Leg Amputation Bengal Health Minister Sharadwat Mukhopadhyay announced on Monday that his department would initiate a formal investigation into a patient’s complaint of losing a leg after a "botched treatment" at a Sebaashray medical camp, an initiative linked to TMC MP Abhishek Banerjee. The probe follows an FIR registered against Banerjee and others after Prabir Biswas, husband of the alleged victim, alleged medical negligence during treatment at the camp. The incident involves Biswas’s wife, who reportedly attended a Sebaashray camp in February 2025 for chronic knee pain caused by osteoarthritis. According to the complaint, she was prescribed medicines by a medical practitioner who did not disclose his full name or medical registration number. Her condition worsened, prompting her to seek treatment at a second Sebaashray camp, where doctors allegedly demanded a large sum for care before referring her to a government hospital. She was admitted to Calcutta National Medical College and Hospital on March 19, underwent a total knee replacement on April 25, and later developed a post-operative vascular complication. An above-knee amputation was performed on May 27, as per the husband’s police complaint. Mukhopadhyay stated that an investigation committee had already been formed and would receive the patient’s official complaint to proceed. He emphasized that the police would be informed of the case, as they lack the technical expertise to analyze medical prescriptions, licenses, or drug quality. The minister also mentioned collaboration with Swasthya Bhavan, a state-run health initiative, to support the probe.#abhishek_banerjee #bengal_health_minister #sharadwat_mukhopadhyay #sebaashray_camp #prabir_biswas
TMC Crisis and INDIA Bloc Strategy Discussion Between Abhishek Banerjee and Rahul Gandhi Abhishek Banerjee, the national president of the Trinamool Congress (TMC), met with Congress leader Rahul Gandhi in New Delhi on Wednesday to discuss the roadmap for the INDIA bloc, which aims to strengthen opposition unity against the ruling BJP. The meeting followed a day earlier dialogue between TMC supremo Mamata Banerjee and Congress’s Sonia Gandhi, highlighting growing coordination between the two parties amid the TMC’s internal crisis. The discussion focused on consolidating the opposition’s position in the upcoming months, with both leaders emphasizing the need for a unified front against the BJP. They addressed issues raised during a recent opposition meeting in Delhi and planned preparations for the next scheduled gathering in Hyderabad. The meeting underscored the importance of strategic collaboration to counter the ruling party’s dominance. Meanwhile, the TMC continues to grapple with severe internal dissent. Senior leaders, including former MLA Sukhendu Roy, have resigned from the party and the Rajya Sabha, while 19 Lok Sabha members have also defected. This exodus has weakened the party’s parliamentary strength, with the opposition bloc now claiming a significant majority in the West Bengal Legislative Assembly. The crisis has intensified as the party’s leadership faces challenges in maintaining control. In the state assembly, 58 MLAs have defected to form a separate faction led by expelled MLA Ritabrata Banerjee, who now claims to represent the majority of the opposition. This split threatens the TMC’s ability to govern effectively and could further destabilize the state’s political landscape.#congress #rahul_gandhi #trinamool_congress #new_delhi #abhishek_banerjee
West Bengal 2nd Phase Elections: BJP Alleges EVM Tampering on TMC, Polling Stopped in Multiple Locations Polling in the second phase of West Bengal elections was halted in several booths in Falta, Diamond Harbour, and surrounding areas after the BJP accused the Trinamool Congress (TMC) of tampering with electronic voting machines (EVMs). The allegations came as part of a broader dispute over the conduct of the election in the South 24 Parganas district, where the TMC’s candidate, Abhishek Banerjee (Mamata Banerjee’s son), faces competition from BJP’s Jahan Khan. The BJP claimed that TMC officials had physically altered EVMs by covering the BJP’s voting button with tape, preventing voters from selecting the BJP candidate. Video footage shared by BJP media incharge Amit Malviya allegedly showed EVMs in Falta’s Hariyandanga High School polling booth with tape over the BJP button. Malviya accused TMC of using a “Diamond Harbour model” to suppress BJP votes, suggesting this method had helped Abhishek secure his parliamentary seat. TMC dismissed the BJP’s claims as baseless, accusing the opposition of fabricating allegations to undermine their electoral prospects. TMC spokesperson Riju Dutta criticized Malviya for spreading online posts instead of reporting the issue to the Election Commission (EC). The EC stated it would investigate any credible tampering claims and, if proven, order re-polling in affected booths. The EC’s directive to re-poll in affected areas has sparked tensions, with the BJP demanding immediate action. Meanwhile, TMC defended its conduct, arguing that the EC’s oversight is necessary to address such allegations. The dispute highlights the heightened political stakes in the state, where the TMC’s dominance faces challenges from the BJP in key constituencies.#west_bengal #bjp #election_commission #tmc #abhishek_banerjee
