A Border Security Force (BSF) jawan's wife speaks out on the Chief Minister of West Bengal, Mamata Banerjee, assuring her efforts to release her husband from arrest for allegedly assaulting a female colleague. She claims that the incident has turned her world upside down and is painful for both families. The BSF jawan was arrested for allegedly assaulting a female colleague, leaving the veteran leader's intervention request denied by the centre.
In a dramatic development in the case of a Border Security Force (BSF) jawan from West Bengal who was arrested for allegedly assaulting a female colleague, the jawan's wife has claimed that Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee spoke to her and assured her of efforts to secure her husband's release. As the dramatic saga played out like a political thriller, with the ruling Trinamool Congress claiming the centre's "conspiracy" and the centre hit back accusing TMC "politicisation," the wife's claim added a new dimension to the developing story.
"Chief Minister Mamata di spoke to me. She assured me that she would do everything to secure my husband's release," the BSF jawan's wife told the media on Friday. According to her, the chief minister asked her to remain strong and said that her government would take care of her family.
The wife said that she broke down after speaking to the chief minister and described the conversation as a "big relief." She has not disclosed how she contacted the chief minister. The BSF jawan was arrested for allegedly assaulting a female colleague at the BSF's women's wing in Kolkata. The BSF issued a statement on his arrest, saying the matter was under investigation.
The wife's claim of speaking to the chief minister came on the same day that TMC MP Nusrat Jahan Raisani wrote to President Ram Nath Kovind, seeking his intervention to revoke the arrest of the BSF jawan. However, the centre rejected the request, stating that the arrest was made following a proper complaint from the female colleague and an inquiry ordered by the BSF DG.
The BSF jawan's wife said that the incident had turned her world upside down. "We have been turned upside down since Sunday. This is very painful for both our families. I appealed to the central and state authorities to help me get my husband back home," she added.
She thanked the chief minister for speaking to her and assured of assistance. She also praised the BSF for serving the nation. The dramatic developments have turned a personal affair into a political tug-of-war between the centre and the state.
Only time will tell how this unfolds and whether the centre will intervene following the TMC's efforts to reverse the arrest. For now, the BSF jawan's wife claims to be grateful for the attention and efforts by the highest ranks of West Bengal's government.
