BJP's Reserved Seat Candidate from General Category Sparks Outrage in Bishnupur
•A surprising incident in Bishnupur, South 24 Parganas, as BJP nominates a general category candidate, Biswajit Khan, for a Scheduled Caste reserved seat.
•The candidate himself expressed surprise, and the move has angered BJP leaders and workers.
•Initially, Agnishwar Naskar was nominated, but due to internal resentment, he was replaced by Biswajit Khan.
•Party workers question why a non-Scheduled Caste candidate was chosen for a reserved constituency, leading to demands for another candidate change.
•Both Biswajit Khan and Agnishwar Naskar joined BJP five years ago from CPM; Agnishwar previously contested from Bishnupur SC seat in 2021.
