What Author Sarojesh Mukerjee Thinks About BJP’s Prospects in Bengal

Author Sarojesh Mukerjee, speaking to NDTV, said the BJP is viewed by some as an "existential threat" to Bengal's cultural identity. He argued that memories of Partition-era divisions have resurfaced in recent years, influencing political discourse. Mukerjee suggested that in rural and South Bengal, the BJP's presence remains limited, while it has relatively stronger footing in North Bengal, where many of its MLAs are concentrated.
