West Bengal LoP Suvendu Adhikari to launch protest for ‘Bengali Hindu homeland', targets ‘infiltrators'
As the Trinamool Congress stepped up its campaign over the reported attacks on Bengali migrant workers in other States, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) intensified its rhetoric on 'Bangladeshi and Rohingya infiltrators', with Leader of Opposition in the West Bengal Legislative Assembly Suvendu Adhikari announcing that he would take to the streets to demand a 'Bengali Hindu homeland'. 'I will take to the streets after August 15 to demand a West Bengal free of Rohingyas and Bangladeshi infiltrators, as was imagined by Shyama Prasad Mookerjee as the Bengali Hindu homeland,' Mr. Adhikari told local media persons on Saturday (July 26, 2025). Reiterating his demand for a Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of the electoral roll in West Bengal, on the lines of a similar exercise in Bihar, the BJP MLA alleged that several Muslim families in the State had married Bangladeshi Muslim women they met on social media, who were subsequently issued 'false Aadhar and EPIC cards' by the State government. 'Many of these Bangladeshi women stayed back with or without visas thanks to Mamata not fencing 540 km of our border. If 50 lakh voters are dropped in Bihar, 1 crore 25 lakh Bangladeshi Muslims and Rohingyas will get dropped in West Bengal,' Mr. Adhikari said. Domicile certificates Mr. Adhikari also alleged that the State government had directed district authorities to issue large numbers of domicile certificates. He said he would write to the Chief Election Commissioner of India, requesting that any certificates issued after July 26 not be accepted. 'The Chief Minister's Office of West Bengal directed district magistrates and sub-divisional officers yesterday to issue large numbers of domicile certificates for the districts of North and South 24 Parganas, Nadia, Murshidabad, Birbhum, Malda, North and South Dinajpur and Cooch Behar. They are distributing domicile certificates to Rohingyas and Bangladeshi Muslims,' Mr. Adhikari alleged. He further claimed that 75,000 Bangladeshi Muslims across eight border districts had been issued Form 6 (application for inclusion in the electoral roll). 'I am warning district authorities of dire consequences if during their door-to-door voter surveys, they accept domicile certificates issued from today, July 26,' the BJP leader said.

Who Is Tanushree Dutta? The Aashiq Banaya Aapne actress, who failed to give any hit, disappeared from Bollywood and then...
Once the face of bold 2000s Bollywood cinema, Tanushree Dutta shot to fame with her sizzling debut in Aashiq Banaya Aapne alongside Emraan Hashmi. Born in Jamshedpur, Jharkhand, into a Bengali Hindu family, she pursued her schooling at D.B.M.S. English School and later graduated from Savitribai Phule Pune University. Her life took a glamorous turn when she won the Femina Miss India 2004 crown. That same year, she represented India at Miss Universe and ranked sixth runner-up, a feat that propelled her into the modelling and film world. How did she enter Bollywood? Tanushree made her Bollywood debut in 2005 with Aashiq Banaya Aapne. The movie became a major talking point for its music and bold scenes. Soon, she was seen in notable films like Bhagam Bhag (opposite Akshay Kumar) and Dhol (with Tusshar Kapoor), and later made an appearance in Tamil cinema with Theeradha Vilaiyattu Pillai in 2010. Despite a promising start, her film career fizzled out. Her last known TV appearance was in SuperCops Vs Super Villains (2013), after which she relocated to the United States. Is she married? Tanushree has always been open about her strong opinions on relationships. Though rumours once linked her to filmmaker Aditya Datt, nothing was confirmed. Speaking about marriage in an old interview, she said, 'I have always known what I want in my family dynamics, in my friendships. I have clarity, so people like me remain single for a long time till there is something very deep or concrete.' To this day, she remains unmarried. Why is Tanushree in the news now? Recently, Tanushree broke down in a teary Instagram video, alleging harassment at her home. 'I am being harassed in my own home. Mujhe mere hi ghar mein pareshaan kiya jaa raha hai,' she said in the emotional clip. She added that police visited her after she called them, but advised her to file a proper complaint at the station. 'Mujhe itna pareshaan kiya gaya hai pichle 4 to 5 saalon mein,' she shared, her voice shaking.
