The incident has triggered a major political storm, with opposition parties including the AIADMK, BJP, and TVK holding protests and raising serious questions about the law and order situation under the DMK-led government. This bulletin also features a voiceover discussing religious freedom, stating, 'If someone has to sacrifice their religion, their faith, to achieve the culmination of love, then it cannot be love, it is blackmailing.'

Bengal on the Boil: TMC Declares Alleged Suicide Victims 'CAA Martyrs'
This special report focuses on a fiery protest by the Trinamool Congress in West Bengal, led by Mamata Banerjee and Abhishek Banerjee, against the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA). In a fiery speech, Abhishek Banerjee declared, 'The party and central government will have to walk on the dead bodies of these people.' The TMC is framing the CAA as a deceptive precursor to a nationwide National Register of Citizens (NRC), creating widespread fear. The party claims that this fear has led to several tragic suicides, and they have controversially labelled the deceased as 'martyrs of CAA'. This report delves into the political firestorm, including the TMC's outreach to the Matua community and other Hindu refugee groups, urging them not to apply for citizenship under the CAA, alleging it's a trap by the BJP to strip them of their existing rights.
