The BJP has got wind in its sails after winning 18 of the state’s 42 parliamentary seats, demoralising the state’s ruling Trinamul Congress. For many months prior to the recent Lok Sabha polls, the TMC, BJP and CPI(M) cadres have been locked in violence, with the ruling party perhaps bearing the biggest responsibility. The CM is doing her best to fight back. The West Bengal government has evidently seen this as an impending threat of dismissal.None of this admits of the prospect of good times for the China Expander Bearings for sale state. Evidently, a political war is on.

Even if the elected state government is not dismissed now, as such a move will appear blatantly partial and motivated, the Centre could show its hand a few months before the Assembly elections. Mr Tripathi’s words perhaps betray his inclinations. That is just as well..This would be a singularly inadvisable course and in his constitutional role, the governor is seeking to imply that he has not made a recommendation for the imposition of Article 356. He said he had come to congratulate Prime Minister Narendra Modi on his grand Lok Sabha victory. On Monday, chief minister Mamata Banerjee went out on a political attack through a statement. However, how much is the decision in the hands of Mr Tripathi, really speaking? He is an old RSS warhorse and it will surprise no one if he did the Centre’s bidding.Violence has rocked states — such as Uttar Pradesh, Gujarat, Haryana and Bihar — ruled by the BJP and its allies, and the Centre hasn’t twitched a muscle.
