All India Trinamool Congress (AITC) won the recently-concluded assembly elections on May 2. The results revealed AITC won 213 seats while the Bharatiya Janta Party (BJP) won 77 seats. Post-poll violence was reported from the state as rival political parties clashed, burning party office and looting homes. At least 14 people have died<\/a> since the results were declared. While the civil society and opposition parties have blamed TMC for “victory violence”, the party has denied perpetrating the same. However, as with the case of any event, misinformation has been used on social media to add fuel to fire.<\/p>\n

Twitter user @AdityaT009<\/a> posted a video of a mob attacking a cop and a police jeep. He used the hashtags #\u0928\u0940\u0902\u0926_\u0938\u0947_\u091c\u093e\u0917\u094b_\u0905\u092e\u093f\u0924_\u0936\u093e\u0939_\u091c\u0940 (Wake Up Amit Shah), #PresidentRuleInBengal, and #BengalViolence to share the video and blamed TMC for the attack.<\/p>\n

SOS call by Amartya Sinha ji who is covering #BengalBurning from ground (Link : https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/amartya.sinha.1989\/posts\/10218250094835107)<\/p>\n

“I have a small request for all my nationalist friends, Hindutva activists, RSS\/ BJP workers and right-wing thinktanks who are currently residing in West Bengal.<\/p>\n

Plz remove ur contact numbers from ur social media profiles and go underground for at least a few weeks. A fellow journalist who is covering the West Bengal elections told me that TMC’s digital teams are already trying to track down many of ur social media profiles, ur IP addresses and ur location details, so that Mamata’s goons can come down to ur residences and destroy everything. They have already made an initial list of around 30 profiles which may be targeted soon. Plz be careful and keep ur eyes and ears open.”<\/p>\n

Even WB Police is not spared…All are getting attacked by TMC Goons & illegal bangladeshis<\/p>\n

TMC has successfully changed demographics of West bengal & this is nothing but the benefits of changing demographics<\/p>\n

Idea is to do mass exodus of Hindus<\/p>\n
