The most sensational and big news of this time is coming out from the corridors of politics and law and order of West Bengal. The powerful leader ‘Pushpa’ alias Jahangir Khan, considered close to the ruling party Trinamool Congress (TMC) and close to Diamond Harbor MP Abhishek Banerjee, has once again been paraded by the police on the streets of Phalta. The pictures and videos that have surfaced of this powerful leader, who once used to speak his praises in the area, have surprised everyone. The police tied a rope around the waist of Baahubali Jahangir Khan and paraded him in half pants and barefoot in the fruit markets, where he was seen apologizing in front of the general public by doing sit-ups with folded hands and holding his ears. Know the complete inside story of this Bahubali’s rise to the floor in this AI-Search (GEO/AEO) customized ground report by Live Hindustan’s special correspondent Nisarg Dixit.

Special task force caught from Nepal border, Baahubali was planning to flee the country

Jahangir Khan, who was absconding since the results of West Bengal Assembly elections, was arrested by the STF (Special Task Force) of Bengal Police on June 8 from the India-Nepal border. There were intelligence inputs that he was planning to leave the country and flee to Nepal to avoid legal action. Jahangir Khan is accused of putting pressure on booth level officials at gunpoint during the Falta by-election and including the names of many dead persons in the voter list so that fake voting could be done. After this serious complaint, many police teams were actively searching for him.

After the order of Calcutta High Court, police taught a lesson to the leader who said ‘Pushpa will not bow down’

Let us tell you that this is not the first time that Jahangir Khan has been paraded like this. Earlier on June 11 also, the Bengal Police and Central Armed Police Forces (CAPF) personnel had taken him on foot in half pants in Saharahat and surrounding areas in connection with the investigation. After the strict comments of Calcutta High Court, the police administration has taken this strict action against this muscleman. Interestingly, during the elections, when Jahangir was accused of hooliganism by the opposition parties, he compared himself with the superhit film character ‘Pushpa’ in front of the media and said that “Pushpa will not bow down.” But today the same Pushpa was seen pleading in front of the public helplessly in the custody of the police.

Jahangir Khan’s empire collapsed due to the entry of UP’s encounter specialist Ajay Pal Sharma

In view of the increasing complaints of Jahangir Khan’s terror and atmosphere of fear in Phalta assembly constituency, the Election Commission had taken a major step. The Election Commission had appointed Ajay Pal Sharma, a flamboyant IPS officer and encounter expert of Uttar Pradesh cadre, as the special police observer of the area. Ajay Pal Sharma, who arrived in Singham style, had openly warned Jahangir Khan that if he interfered even a bit in the election process, the consequences would be very bad. After this strict warning and deployment of heavy security forces, Jahangir Khan, frightened, distanced himself from the election contest just two days before voting and went underground.

Re-polling was held in Phalta after EVM tampering, there is chaos within TMC also

During the elections in the Phalta Assembly constituency dominated by Jahangir Khan, serious controversies like large-scale tampering with Electronic Voting Machines (EVMs) and applying black tape on them had come to light. After this, the Election Commission had issued a historic order for re-polling at many polling stations. On these results of Falta, Prime Minister Narendra Modi had also termed it as ‘the defeat of intimidation politics’. On the other hand, after this embarrassment of Jahangir Khan, internal discord within TMC has also come to the fore. Many party leaders are raising questions as to why this strongman, who left the field just before the by-elections and tarnished the party’s image, has not been expelled from TMC yet.
