pm modiKolkata:  Prime Minister Narendra Modi is likely to address at least 10 public meetings across West Bengal campaigning for the BJP in the assembly polls, the party’s state unit chief Dilip Ghosh said here on Saturday.

“We have sent a proposal to the central leadership urging the prime minister to campaign in the state. He is likely to address at least 10 public meetings across various constituencies,” Ghosh said.

Among the constituencies where Modi is expected to campaign are Siliguri in North Bengal, Kharagpur in West Midnapore district, Asansol in Burdwan district and Malda.

The BJP is targeting the Mamata Banerjee government over violence in Kaliachak in Malda where a large mob set afire several vehicles and attacked a police station in January.

Ghosh said Modi was likely to address a public rally later in the month with at least two-three visits in April.

Besides Modi, a host of high profile BJP leaders including party chief Amit Shah were also expected to campaign during the mega poll battle in the state.

“At least 30-40 BJP leaders including Maharashtra chief minister Devendra Fadnavis and Madhya Pradesh chief minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan will campaign for the party,” added Ghosh.

The court, generally, considers a person who commit a crime and the one who destroys the evidence, as criminals in the eyes of law. But what if an animal destroys the evidence of a crime committed by a human.

In a peculiar incident in Rajasthan, a monkey fled away with the evidence collected by the police in a murder case. The stolen evidence included the murder weapon (a blood-stained knife).

The incident came to light when the police appeared before the court and they had to provide the evidence in the hearing.

The hearing was about the crime which took place in September 2016, in which a person named Shashikant Sharma died at a primary health center under Chandwaji police station. After the body was found, the deceased’s relatives blocked the Jaipur-Delhi highway, demanding an inquiry into the matter.

Following the investigation, the police had arrested Rahul Kandera and Mohanlal Kandera, residents of Chandwaji in relation to the murder. But, when the time came to produce the evidence related to the case, it was found that the police had no evidence with them because a monkey had stolen it from them.

In the court, the police said that the knife, which was the primary evidence, was also taken by the monkey. The cops informed that the evidence of the case was kept in a bag, which was being taken to the court.

The evidence bag contained the knife and 15 other important evidences. However, due to the lack of space in the malkhana, a bag full of evidence was kept under a tree, which led to the incident.
