The Statesman

November 08, 2024

TMC leader Joyprakash Majumdar held rallies in Madarihat and Sitai in Cooch Behar, while BJP leader Dilip Ghosh campaigned in Sitai

As the Madarihat by-election approaches on 13 November, the stalled road over bridge (ROB) at a railway crossing in Birpara has emerged as a key campaign issue.

The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) is spotlighting the delay, holding the Trinamul Congress (TMC)-led state government responsible for the holdup.

The TMC, aiming to reclaim this Assembly segment from the BJP, has been campaigning extensively. Alipurduar TMC district president and Rajya Sabha member Prakash Chik Baraik is actively rallying support for TMC candidate Jay Prakash Toppo.
