West Bengal has been burning since the BJP swept to power on May 4. The violence has taken many forms: shops gutted, political workers killed, clubs ransacked, statues smashed, and a bulldozer brought in to flatten a party office in central Kolkata. The Trinamool Congress claims six of its workers have been killed. Adhikari’s personal assistant was shot dead last week. The BJP also says its two supporters were targeted in Howrah and New Town.

Six TMC workers, an aide to the CM, and at least two BJP supporters are among those reported killed so far. Police earlier registered 200 FIRs, arrested 433 people, and detained 1,100 more. TMC leaders blamed the recent fire in Khejuri on BJP-backed elements. On Monday morning, fresh reports of arson emerged from Khejuri, the second such incident in as many nights. The BJP called it an electrical fault. The TMC called it arson.
