He accused TMC of harboring animosity towards tribal women and raised concerns about the disrespect shown to President Droupadi Murmu.

He issued a stern warning to the corrupt individuals and syndicates in Bishnupur, advising all TMC goons to surrender at their nearest police stations before April 29, as no one would be spared after May 4. He concluded by stating that the people of Bengal have awakened and are determined to remove this ruthless government.
