In a dramatic turn of events, Mayor Sulochana Das faced strong opposition from residents who gathered outside the 14th BMC Ward Office to protest her remarks regarding Bangladeshi immigrants.


The demonstrators waved black flags as a sign of their dissent, demanding clarity and accountability from the local administration.

Eyewitnesses reported a charged atmosphere as locals voiced concerns over the mayor’s stance on immigration and its impact on the city. Many protesters emphasised the need for a thorough discussion on the issue before any official statements are made.

As the controversy unfolds, political analysts suggest that this incident might have lasting repercussions on the city’s governance and upcoming electoral campaigns. Mayor Das has yet to release an official statement in response to the public outcry.
