Rhea Chakraborty News: Congress’ Adhir Chowdhury Defends’ Bengali Lady Brahmin ‘Rhea Chakraborty | Kolkata News


CALCUTTA: Hours after assuming the post of President of the Bengal Pradesh Congress, Adhir Chowdhury on Thursday he strummed the Bengali chords ‘asmita’, describing Rhea Chakraborty as a “Bengalee Brahmin lady” against BJP’s attempt to turn late star Sushant Singh Rajput into a “Bihari actor”.
Chowdhury, the first Bengali politician to point out the problem days after social media was flooded with trolls against Bengali women, also fought for Rhea’s father to seek justice for his children.

“Late star, Mr. Sushanth SinghRajput was an Indian actor. BJP made him a Bihari actor, only to score electoral points. Rhea’s father is a former military officer, he served the nation. Rhea is a Bengali Brahmin lady, justice for actor Sushant Rajput should not be construed as justice for Bihari, ”Chowdhury tweeted.

Rhea, born in Bengaluru, has her ancestral home in Bagmundi de Purulia.

With BJP siding with the Bihar lineage of Rajput and Trinamool quietly, Chowdhury, who has fringe electoral interests in Bihar and Bengal, stepped forward and tweeted: “Rea’s father also has the right to demand justice for his children, the trial by the media is a sinister omen for our judicial system. ”

Rhea and her brother Showik were arrested by the Bureau of Narcotics Control which was investigating the drugs angle in the Rajput case. Calling it “ridiculous,” the congressional leader said: “Rhea Chakraborty has not been charged with incitement to suicide or murder, or for any economic crime. She has been arrested under the NDPS (Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act). To please the public. Political masters, the central agencies have played their role, after churning the sea they have discovered drugs instead of nectar ”.

Assuming office for the second time after a two-year hiatus when he was replaced by Somen Mitra in September 2018, Chowdhury began his second inning by promising a jabardast fight against the “authoritarian Trinamool.”
He strongly advocated for an electoral understanding with the left in the 2021 Bengal assembly elections, ending speculation about the Pradesh Congress approaching TMC after Congress President Sonia Gandhi gave prominence to Mamata Banerjee during a virtual meeting with seven CMs who do not belong to the BJP.
“The Congress did not want to break the electoral understanding with the Left in Bengal. We wanted to turn it into a political alliance. CPM felt after the 2016 assembly elections that the party did not win by joining Congress. Now that the joint movements have begun, we reiterate our position for an electoral understanding with the left, ”Chowdhury said.
