  • | Tuesday | 30th March, 2021

Union Home Minister Amit Shah also condoled the death of the octagenarian mother of the BJP candidate, saying her death will haunt West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee for long.  

Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) worker from Nimta, Gopal Majumdar`s 85-year-old mother, Shobha Majumdar, who was allegedly beaten up by Trinamool Congress (TMC) workers last month in the North 24 Parganas district, died on Monday.

Majumdar had earlier claimed that she and her son Gopal Majumdar were beaten up by “TMC goons” on February 27. Following the attack, she had been admitted to a private hospital off EM Bypass in Kolkata and was discharged only four days ago. She passed away on Monday morning.

Taking to Twitter, BJP National President JP Nadda said: "I wish peace to Nimta`s old mother Shobha Majumdar`s soul. She had to sacrifice her life for her son Gopal Majumdar being in BJP. BJP will always remember her sacrifice. She was Bengal`s `mother` as well as its `daughter`. BJP will always fight for the safety of Bengal`s mothers and daughters."

Union Home Minister Amit Shah also condoled the death of the mother of the BJP candidate, saying her death will haunt West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee for long.

Following her death, BJP candidate in Dumdam Uttar constituency Dr Archana Majumdar blamed TMC activists for the attack. Her son Gopal also stated that if she was not attacked last month, she would have lived a few more days.

Political violence has been regularly making headlines in poll-bound West Bengal, as the state moves on to the second phase of the assembly elections.
