Added: 2026-05-14

[00:00:00]Now let's show you some pictures. Okay, those are pictures from uh from Basidhat.

[00:00:05]Shuendo Adikari Shuendo Adiari is uh is there the postmortem is being conducted. It was his political aid. In fact, let's tell you a little bit about Shuendo Adikari's aid Chandranat. Shuendu is at the hospital. Shuendu outside the Barasath Hospital, Barasath Hospital where the remains of uh and the body of Chundranatra is being placed and it is there where the postmortem is currently underway.

[00:00:34]Chundranat Rat is from Chandipur in Pura Medinur.

[00:00:39]He served in the military before entering politics. He was a veteran in the Indian Air Force. He completed his education at the Ram Krishna mission before joining the air force shifted to politics after his military tenure. He's been a long-term associate of Suendo Adikari. His political journey has mirrored Adikar's. His family was originally aligned with the Trinimal Congress. That is why he was a prime target. He was initially with the Trinimal Congress then switched along with Shuendo Adikari. His mother Hashidat was also a prominent local political figure. She also served as a functionary in a panchayat samiti later joined the BJP alongside her son and Adiari. So the families are also known to each other and they've had a similar political trajectory. In 2019 when Shuindu Adikari served as a minister in the West Bengal government, Ratat that is Chandraanath was also appointed as his assistant secretary in the water resources investigation and development department.

[00:01:44]And when Adikari defected from the Trinamul Congress to the BJP in December 2020, Chandraatraat remained a loyalist and continued to be his assistant managing critical administrative and political responsibilities including Shuendu Adikari's tenor as the leader of opposition. So these are pictures of Shuendu Adikari reaching the hospital.

[00:02:09]Let's show you the pictures of Shuendu's aid. That's Shan Alatrat on the right of your screens. Uh when his body was wheeled into an ambulance. Let's show you those pictures of what happened last night. The Republic TV was live through the night. Let's show you those pictures just to give you an idea about what happened last night when his SUV was targeted, was stopped. A car overtook the SUV, stopped it on the right. We will play out the pictures from last night so that you get an idea. Uh that's the CCTV footage by the way of Shuendu's aid uh when it was spotted.

[00:02:38]exclusive pictures of uh exclusive pictures of the CCTV, the raw CCTV footage of the SUV passing through that area perhaps minutes before he was murdered.

[00:02:55]And as we look at the CCTV footage, what is clear is that uh he was targeted when he moved away from Shuendu. It is believed that he was with Shuend until a point and then when he moved away, that's when he was targeted.

[00:03:08]We're getting in more details. That's the CCTV footage. Harsha still there.

[00:03:12]Harsha, the Trinimal Congress has claimed they have nothing to do with it.

[00:03:16]But the statements of the Trinal Congress leaders even before the election results that come the 4th of May, they said they will do what they have to.

[00:03:32]Nanji rightly pointed out why any other candidate Vishek Panerji himself challenged and threatened openly in front of the you know in front of uh you know the entire the so many citizens of West Bengal. The last speech he made in a gathering, he clearly stated, "I will see you all on 4th of May after 12 p.m.

[00:03:51]This was the threatening and message which was given directly by Abshek Banerjee and also there are many candidates who clearly stated that there will be immense postpole violence if BJP comes to power and that is exactly what we see here is that escalation of the postpole violence. When we spoke to CEO Mano Jagaral yesterday night after the incident, he clearly told us that this is very surprising that everywhere the security personnel have been deployed.

[00:04:14]The meetings have been done and also the TMC top leaders have also been told directly by the commission and by the higher highest authorities of the police that no such incident in West Bengal should take place. The troublemongers were already in the custody. They have been arrested before the elections only Naranja. And how come who with this courage doing the you know conspiring the incident of such large scale directly attacking Suendu Adikari's PA who has right now no where he has challenged or he has spoken anything ill he was just managing Suendu Adikari's campaign he was all out in Bhawanur Niranjan even if when the the day when I had to interview Suindu Adikari he was the key person whom I called and I requested for the interview Suendo Adikari. So he was the person who manages bhwani poor in and out for suindu adikari deals with the media deals with everything and in fact the meetings which suddari will take all the locations which suinduari will go he was the key person in bhwani was his only mistake was that he managed the elections for sani swinduari and bhwani and mta lost for bhwani was it the anger and agitation and furiousness rattlness of the TMC supporters and the goons which transpired which led to the murder of Chandran. He was just doing his responsibility and the result is that he was murdered at point blank. Such a gory visuals. We saw the way he was murdered at point blank. Several rounds of bullets were fired at him. The shells are still at the spot from where we are reporting. The shards of broken glasses of the vehicle of the Scorpio in which he was along with his driver. Now the security person have reached the spot Niranjun. But the fact is that the violence have occurred and also one person has lost his life. Not just one any one person. He was the person who was very close to Suindu Adikari and how he has directly hit to a person who is also one of the strongest names for the CM contenders in West Bengal. He has been targeting. So that does the goons have sent out a loud and clear message to Sueno Adiari. Were they trying to give any sort of message to Suendo Adiari or create some fear you know uh fear psychosis amongst the citizens that this is the result if BJP will win then we are going to resort to violence in West Bengal. Was it some some kind of messaging that Westmin CEO Mano Jagar told us yesterday night that are they trying to get some sort of message because we have ensured that there is sufficient security personnel deployed the law and order no one takes in their hand but look at the visual right now the streets are empty this eerie silence on these narrow narrow lanes Nanju these are the busiest narrow lanes in Madam Gram and since yesterday night the shopkeepers have fled they are nowhere they have shut their shops down. They've gone to their houses. No one is coming out. No one is speaking to media. No one is sharing anything. Everyone is so much afraid and scared of the present situation. And that is a fear psychosis which TMC has been creating since long in West Bengal. And that is which the citizens now don't want. But yesterday's incident has some or the other way let the psycho you know fear psychosis get a grip of the shopkeepers the locals who are living here. No one is speaking to us. All the shops, all the houses, everyone is inside right now. The security personnel have taken the spot.

[00:07:33]They are they have cordoned this entire lane. The busiest lane right now is eerie silence. Only the personnel, media persons and the officials from the BSF and forensic teams and C are only visiting here. That's the reality after the yesterday night from the Kimes Prime.
