Sayoni Ghosh changes her tune after switching sides: Comes to CM’s defense over the Baruipur incident.


Once again a big upheaval is being seen in the politics of West Bengal, where as soon as the party changes, the language and political line of the leaders turns 180 degrees. Sayoni Ghosh, once a vocal face of Trinamool Congress (TMC), after changing sides, has now taken a completely new stand on the sensitive issue of Baruipur. Sayoni Ghosh has now directly come to the defense of Chief Minister Shubhendu Adhikari in this entire incident, due to which discussions have intensified in the political circles of the entire state and the opposition has started an all-round siege regarding her old statements.

Baruipur incident and Sayoni’s new political stand

While the opposition is continuously accusing the state government and the Chief Minister of administrative failure regarding this controversial incident that took place in Baruipur of South 24 Parganas, Sayoni Ghosh has strongly supported the government. Expressing confidence in the action of the local administration, he said that the investigation is moving in the right direction under the leadership of Chief Minister Shubhendu Adhikari and there should be no politics on this. This statement of Sayoni has come at a time when the issue of Baruipur is very heated at the local level and people are raising questions regarding law and order.

Old statements went viral on social media: Opposition targeted

As soon as Sayoni Ghosh started making statements in favor of the Chief Minister and the government, opposition leaders and social media users flooded her old videos and tweets. Opposition parties reminded that when Sayoni was in the other camp, she used to directly put the government and the Chief Minister in the dock on similar incidents. Political analysts say that this is another big example of opportunistic politics of West Bengal, where ideologies and stands are decided only on the basis of which party flag the leader is standing under.

Heat wave in Baruipur and South 24 Parganas: What will be the impact?

This entire controversy is also going to affect the equations of Baruipur and its surrounding geographical areas. This changed stance of Sayoni Ghosh is not being accepted by the local workers, which may increase dissatisfaction at the grassroots level. From Hooghly to South 24 Parganas, heated statements have started in political rallies regarding this statement. Now it remains to be seen whether this new damage control of Sayoni Ghosh is able to get Chief Minister Shubhendu Adhikari and the government out of this crisis or whether his own old statements will become a problem for his new political innings.
