Assembly elections are going to be held in West Bengal subsequent yr and the final Durgapuja is being celebrated earlier than that. This time the preparations for Durgapuja have been carried out in keeping with the electoral, however there was additionally a shadow of rain. Mamta Banerjee’s authorities had given more cash this time to make each registered Durgapuja Committee to make a pandal. It is not only a matter of Bengal. It is reported that in Bihar, extra cash has been despatched by the authorities for cleansing and ornament of cities throughout Durgapuja. Elections are going to be held there subsequent month. However, if we take a look at the theme of Durgapuja pandals in West Bengal this time, then they get some concept of subsequent yr’s meeting elections.
Although hundreds of pandals have been made of Durgapuja, however the theme of many pandals is related to Bangla Asmita. While the sense of satisfaction on Bangla language and Asmita is proven, at the identical time the harassment of migratory Bengalis exterior Bengal has additionally been made a theme of Durgapuja pandals. Also, the historical past and tragedy of partition earlier than the partition of Bengal can also be proven in the pandals.
The theme of the pandals of Durgapuja in West Bengal is roughly mirrored in the historical past and tradition there. Remember in Durgapuja earlier than the Lok Sabha elections final yr, in a pandal in Durgapuja of 2023, Mahatma Gandhi was proven like Mahishasura. After that, everybody noticed what the outcomes got here. However, the theme of this yr’s Pooja Pandals goes to make the Bharatiya Janata Party sleep. Many pandals are going to point out harassment of migrant laborers. Significantly, the information of harassment with Bangla migrant laborers has come from BJP dominated states. The most harassment information got here in Delhi and Haryana. Bangla audio system have been caught in Gurugram, Haryana and in the capital Delhi and an try was made to take away them as Bangladeshi. The Delhi Police wrote a letter to Bang Bhavan and mentioned that he has caught some individuals, who’re talking Bangladeshi language. Mamata Banerjee’s occasion had strongly objected to Bangla being described as Bangladeshi language.
Now this subject is demonstrating the standard perception of West Bengal. This time the BJP’s narrator has not been capable of run. There is not any pandal on the theme of any incident like rape and homicide of a junior physician in RG Kar Hospital. There is not any information of a pandal even on the theme of any incident that enhances communal division. It could also be that such pandals are additionally made someplace however they don’t seem to be in the dialogue of mainstream. Instead, pandals have been made on the theme of Bangla Asmita, Bangla language, harassment of migratory Bengalis. This is a matter on which the BJP management weakens. Mamta Banerjee introduces her face in comparison with Narendra Modi and Amit Shah and makes the outer versus Bengali subject. The disaster earlier than the BJP is that even after so a few years, it has not been capable of stand any chief in West Bengal. Even now her work is happening with the assist of Suvendu officer from Mamata Banerjee’s occasion. Only then if Bangla turns into a problem of id and language, then the combat will grow to be simpler for Mamata Banerjee.
