Former Calcutta High Court judge Abhijit Gangopadhyay, who joined the BJP today, has come under a ballistic attack by West Bengal Chief Minister and Trinamool Congress chief Mamata Banerjee.

Addressing a gathering at the end of a Trinamool march to mark International Women’s Day, Ms Banerjee described the former judge as a “BJP babu who was sitting on the bench” and said that if contests the upcoming Lok Sabha election, she will ensure he loses.

“A BJP babu was sitting on the bench and now he has joined BJP. How can you expect justice from them? The mask is off,” she said.

Mr Gangopadhyay had made headlines as a judge of Calcutta High Court when he issued several orders to central agencies to investigate allegations of irregularities in the Mamata Banerjee government’s recruitment of teaching and non-teaching staff. He joined the BJP today, days after resigning as a judge.

“Today, I have joined a new field. I am happy to join the BJP and will work as a party soldier. Our objective is to oust the corrupt TMC regime from the state,” he said. There is speculation that the former judge may be fielded by the BJP in the Lok Sabha election.

Hitting out at the former judge, Ms Banerjee said,

“After denying jobs to thousands of students, he has become a leader. Be ready. Wherever you contest from, I will send students to fight you. Remember, the people will judge you now.”

The Bengal Chief Minister added that she has five lakh jobs “but these dangerous snakes are denying jobs to the people of Bengal”.

Ms Banerjee also hit back at Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s barbs over the Sandeshkhali case. She said Bengal is the “safest for women”. “As many as 458 central teams came to Bengal. How many teams went to Manipur when women were paraded naked? How many teams went to Hathras? All your anger is for Bengal,” she said, countering the BJP’s charge.

The Sandeshkhali island in North 24 Parganas district has made headlines in the wake of allegations of land grab, extortion and sexual harassment against local Trinamool leaders. Sheikh Shahjahan, a strongman from Sandeshkhali, was arrested by Bengal police last month and is now in CBI’s custody. Amid the BJP’s charge, Trinamool has expelled Shahjahan for six years.

In an apparent reference to the action against the strongman, Ms Banerjee said, “Sometimes we are not aware of things, but if injustice is reported, we don’t hesitate to arrest even Trinamool workers.”

Defence Minister Rajnath Singh on Thursday underlined India’s readiness for war in the face of multiple challenges along the country’s border. Speaking at NDTV’s first Defence Summit, Mr Singh said, “We have to be ready for war at all times… even in peacetime. We have to be ready.”

“Whether from land, air, or sea… if anyone attacks India, our forces will respond strongly. We have never attacked any country nor have we occupied even an inch of anyone’s land. But, if anyone attacks us, we are in position to give a befitting reply,” he said at the event.

Mr Singh’s comments have been seen as a not-so-veiled reference to continuing tension with China in Kashmir and Ladakh, as well as the northeast. Indian and Chinese troops have been locked in military stand-off for nearly four years – following confrontations at friction points in eastern Ladakh.

The 20th round of Corps Commander-level talks between Delhi and Beijing was held in October, at Chushul as part of ongoing efforts for disengagement and de-escalation to resolve the stand-off.

Tensions, however, continue to remain.

Last week External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar, speaking at a think-tank event in Delhi, called on Beijing to adhere to border management pacts to ensure peace between the nations.

Rajnath Singh’s assertive comments to NDTV echoed those made in January, when he said the world had witnessed India’s rise as a “key global economic and strategic power”. Mr Singh acknowledged the India-China relationship “is currently under strain”, but insisted Delhi wants good ties with all.

Then the Defence Minister referred to “the courage shown by our soldiers during the stand-off with Chinese troops in Galwan (in eastern Ladakh)”, and said, “We are no more a weak country.”

“Ab aisa nhi hai ki Bharat ko ankh dikha ke jo chahe so nikal jaye (No longer can anyone show us a red eye and get away with it),” Rajnath Singh had said.

Meanwhile, at the NDTV Defence Summit, Mr Singh also spoke about the government’s focus on an ‘Atmanirbhar Bharat’, or a ‘self-reliant India’, when considering the defence sector.

“In 2014, when Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s government came to power, we put defence sector as our main priority. ‘Atmanirbharta‘, or ‘self-reliance’, was encouraged… we introduced many make-in-India initiatives and our focus was on military modernisation,” he explained.

“I am not saying previous governments did not put emphasis on defence sector. But we brought ‘atmanirbharta‘ in the defence sector,” he stressed.
