Spineless EC Sunil A. has unwittingly given away the game. So we know that it was this man, Tejinder Bagga, a BJP man, who conceived and orchestrated the violence. Senior police officers have their ears to the ground. Why did Rajiv Kumar zero in on Bagga, clearly an outsider, and not on any other BJP man? There must be tens of BJP supporters from outside Calcutta who might have reached there specifically for Amit Shah’s road show.
If EC’s informant, who sent a report against Rajiv Kumar, was so confident that Bagga was innocent, then obviously he had access to some reliable intelligence network. In that case, has he named any TMC man who according to his information was responsible for the mayhem? Or another BJP man or a Congress man or a CPM man? If this informant’s network is in complete dark about “who did it”, then how can he be so confident that Bagga didn’t do it? And how can he come to this conclusion so quickly?
