Basirhat, a constituency in Bengal, is currently a hot seat due to the BJP’s campaign against the ruling Trinamool Congress (TMC) over allegations of torture and assault of women. The BJP has fielded Rekha Patra, a young woman from Sandeshkhali who was subjected to the assault. Trinamool has turned the narrative on the issue in its favor after viral videos surfaced showing women who claimed they were pressurized and falsely implicated to sign blank papers.
