On July 30, 2025, during a BJP cavalcade in West Bengal, Leader of the Opposition Suvendu Adhikari confronted a man who shouted “Joy Bangla” from the roadside. Adhikari reportedly halted his vehicle, disembarked with security personnel, and threatened the man, saying he would “skin you alive”. The man later claimed he was assaulted by the BJP leader’s security team. The confrontation quickly turned chaotic amid political tensions and deep symbolism attached to the slogan. The incident underscores heightened polarization in the state ahead of upcoming elections. (PC: NDTV)
