Suvendu Adhikari to Visit Kalighat on Kaushiki Amavasya
Chief Minister Suvendu Adhikari said he would visit Kalighat Temple at 5:30 pm on Thursday to offer prayers on the occasion of Kaushiki Amavasya.
Kalighat is among the prominent religious sites in West Bengal, and the Chief Minister's planned visit comes as devotees across the state observe the auspicious occasion.
Security Arrangements at Tarapith
Adhikari also referred to the arrangements at Tarapith, where Kaushiki Amavasya is being observed on a large scale.
He said extensive security and administrative arrangements had been made to manage the gathering of devotees and ensure the smooth conduct of the religious observance.
A helicopter was also used for an aerial flower shower over the Tarapith temple, adding a special feature to the occasion.
CM Responds to Remarks on Saffron Attire
Reacting to comments by Akhruruzzaman regarding his saffron attire, Adhikari said saffron is not a political party but a colour associated with a political flag.
The Chief Minister accused his opponents of selectively targeting saffron and Sanatan Dharma and warned against making remarks that, in his view, could hurt religious sentiments.
The issue became part of a broader discussion during the Chief Minister's remarks on religion, politics and public discourse.
