WB Assembly Elections 2020: BJP Promises To Release Political Prisoners

As WB assembly elections are to be held in April-May next year, the politics over the release of political prisoners, if a new party comes to power, has surfaced once again.
This time, the promise to release political prisoners was made by the BJP, which has emerged as the primary challenger to the ruling TMC.
State BJP head, Dilip Ghosh announced at a public rally in East Midnapore district that the party would withdraw cases against political prisoners belonging to any party, including the TMC.
He further added, “Not just cases, which have been lodged against BJP workers, but we will also withdraw cases, which have been filed to falsely implicate Communist Party of India (M) and Congress workers."
"A decision will be taken in the first cabinet meeting after the BJP comes to power in Bengal", said Ghosh.
