Kolkata – Veteran filmmaker and social activist, Aparna Sen, has expressed her deep concern over the recent incidents of violence during the Bengal polls and has taken to pen an emotional open letter addressed to Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee.
The acclaimed artist’s heart was shattered after witnessing disturbing videos from Manipur, highlighting the grim reality of violence that marred the electoral process in the state.
Aparna Sen, a prominent figure in the Bengali film industry, is well-known for her strong opinions on various social and political issues.
In an open letter to Mamata Banerjee, Aparna Sen also accuses her administration of being to blame for the unrest during the most recent panchayat elections in West Bengal. 52 fatalities were noted by Aparna in her letter.
Aparna Sen wrote in her letter, “I don’t know what West Bengal’s future holds, but I can tell it's gloomy. During CPIM, the modification was required. However, TMC is now engaged in other activities. I've written one open letter to the chief minister, Mamata Banerjee.
She said, “I don’t know if it will work or not,” after condemning the bloodshed and fatalities during the elections. It is regrettable that the poll is to blame for many deaths in West Bengal. It’s challenging to remark. The police, administration, and all officers should be informed.
The open letter has garnered significant attention on social media, with many expressing solidarity with Aparna Sen’s sentiments. Citizens, activists, and political figures alike are awaiting Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee’s response to the powerful appeal made by the acclaimed filmmaker.
As the nation grapples with issues of electoral violence and democratic integrity, Aparna Sen’s heartfelt letter serves as a reminder of the responsibilities that leaders hold in safeguarding the democratic fabric of the country.
It remains to be seen how the West Bengal government respond to this impassioned plea for peace and justice.
