Bharatiya Janata Party has intensified its attack on the Mamata Banarjee-led West Bengal government over the horrifying rape and murder case of an RG Kar trainee doctor. The party recently shared a video of a muscleman named Afsar Ali Khan, who can be seen flaunting his close connection with the TMC supremo. The video has been claimed to have been shot at Kolkata’s RG Kar Hospital.
Mint couldn’t independently verify the video. While sharing the video on X, the BJP West Bengal unit claimed that Afsar Ali Khan was the “enforcer” of Sandip Ghosh, the former principal of RG Kar Hospital.
“Afsar Ali Khan, Sandip Ghosh’s enforcer from Belgachia, has built an empire off syndicate cash, now flaunting a ₹40 lakh car at R.G. Kar Hospital,” read the post by BJP West Bengal.
“Last year, this muscle-for-hire was seen in the Deputy Superintendent’s office, speaking with Dr. Manas Banerjee, the Principal. This is the ugly face of syndicate-fueled corruption—pockets lined, power unchecked, and the system rotting from within. How long will these syndicate kingpins keep hijacking our institutions?,” the post continued.
‘You can call CM didi’, asks man in video
The video, shot approximately a year ago, features Afsar Ali Khan. The BJP has claimed that Khan is a hospital staff member and an associate of a TMC MLA and former RG Kar Principal Sandip Ghosh. In the viral video, Khan mentioned his links with West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee when other officials at the hospital asked about his presence.
In the video, Khan is questioned by Manas Kumar Bandyopadhyay, who held the post of RG Kar principal before Sandip Ghosh. Khan is asked why he is not regular in his work and why he doesn’t wear the uniform. In response to the question, Khan replied that he was sent by “CM didi”.
