The Indian Income Tax Department conducted a raid on the home and campaign office of Trinamool Congress candidate Debashis Kumar in the Rashbehari constituency of West Bengal. The operation began on Friday morning, just days before the state assembly elections. Searches were also carried out at his mother-in-law’s flat. The raids drew a crowd of Trinamool workers and supporters outside Kumar’s residence.
West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee criticized the action, alleging that authorities were targeting Trinamool offices while ignoring illegal money operations elsewhere. The reason for the raid has not yet been clarified. Recently, the Enforcement Directorate had summoned Debashis Kumar in connection with a land fraud case.
Debashis Kumar is contesting against BJP candidate Swapan Dasgupta in the Rashbehari seat, where the BJP expects a strong performance. The timing of the raid, so close to the election, has added political tension in the constituency.
