Senior BJP leader Arjun Singh has alleged that political conspiracies are underway targeting him due to his opposition stance, further claiming efforts are being made for his elimination.
'I'm being vilified and there's a plot to eliminate me,' Singh stated after his CID questioning regarding alleged irregularities in a tender process during his tenure as chairman of Bhatpara Municipality in 2020.
Trinamool Congress leaders have dismissed Singh's allegations as unfounded, with spokesperson Kunal Ghosh describing them as 'ridiculous' and politically motivated. Singh, who previously switched allegiance from BJP to TMC and back, remains embroiled in the investigation surrounding Rs 4.5 crore financial misconduct allegations.
