"Reverse Thinking": Bengal Governor On BJP Not Being Allowed Into Sandeshkhali

West Bengal Governor CV Ananda Bose used the phrase 'Vinash Kale Viprit Buddhi'.
In a strong statement on the Sandeshkhali violence, the West Bengal governor has implied that the state government is taking irrational decisions when he was asked about the opposition being stopped from visiting the area. Governor CV Ananda Bose used the phrase 'Vinash Kale Viprit Buddhi' from Chanakya Niti, which means that a person's decision-making can become irrational or counterproductive during difficult moments.
Mr Bose, who returned to Kolkata on Wednesday after a visit to New Delhi, had gone to Sandeshkhali before he left and had spoken to the women who, the BJP claims, have made allegations of sexual harassment and rape against a local Trinamool Congress strongman's aides. The issue has snowballed into a political storm with the BJP and Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee-led Trinamool Congress trading charges.
The West Bengal Police have denied any such allegations or complaints and have warned against 'wilful misinformation' by sections of the media.
