TMC doesn’t seem to want mercy or peace — neither from the people nor the incoming government.

Just hours after Suvendu Adhikari’s personal assistant Chandranath Rath was shot dead, now another BJP worker Rohit Roy has been shot at in Basirhat.

This cycle of violence needs to stop. Bengal deserves peace and stability.

Recently, the West Bengal exit polls have sparked unexpected alarm across the border in the Bangladesh Parliament.

Rangpur MP Akhter Hossen (National Citizen Party) openly expressed concern that if the BJP forms the government in Bengal, they will push alleged illegal migrants back across the porous border, creating a "major humanitarian and refugee crisis" for Dhaka.

I made this editorial cartoon to capture the sheer panic happening across the border over the prospect of a secure border and strict deportation policies.

What are your thoughts on this? Does an open admission of fear from a Bangladeshi MP prove that the illegal influx was being shielded all along?

Context behind the cartoon: >

Yesterday (April 28), two journalists—Sushant Soni (News18) and Ashish Sav—were brutally assaulted by a mob in Hazaribagh, Jharkhand. Their "crime"? They asked Health Minister Irfan Ansari why there was a delay in giving compensation to the families of the Chatra air ambulance crash victims.

Instead of answering, the minister's supporters beat them nearly lifeless right in front of the minister and the police. Eyewitnesses reported the police just watched and went "shhh" instead of intervening. No immediate arrests, no FIR, complete silence from the leadership.

The absolute irony of preaching about "Free Speech" and "Saving Democracy" at the podium while your goons crush the press backstage.
