Suvendu Adhikari Slams Mamata Banerjee for ‘Khela Hobe Diwas’ on Direct Action Day Anniversary

BJP leader and West Bengal LoP Suvendu Adhikari launched a fierce attack on CM Mamata Banerjee, accusing her of insulting the memory of victims of the 1946 Direct Action Day massacre by celebrating ‘Khela Hobe Diwas’ on August 16. Adhikari alleged that nearly 10,000 Hindus were killed in Kolkata during the Muslim League-led violence, and likened the TMC to “Muslim League 2.” The controversy has reignited debates on historical memory, political symbolism, and sensitivity in West Bengal’s politics.
