#WATCH | Guwahati | After resigning from the post of Assam CM, Himanta Biswa Sarma says, "Shri JP Nadda and Nayab Singh Saini have been appointed as Central observers by BJP National President Nitin Nabin. Who will be the next CM and the leader will be decided by the legislative party. Following the legislature party meeting, we will come back to Lok Bhawan again and stake a claim to form a government. There is an indication that oath-taking will be post May 11 because we have invited the Prime Minister to kindly grace the swearing-in ceremony of our government this time. We have invited the PM because we got a hat-trick with a century this time."

Prosenjit Chatterjee (@prosenjitbumba) calls Rudranil Ghosh (@ActorRudranil) Actor and BJP candidate Rudranil Ghosh received a congratulatory call from Tollywood veteran Prosenjit Chatterjee on Monday night, hours after he secured the Howrah Shibpur Assembly seat. Ghosh defeated Trinamool Congress candidate Rana Chatterjee by 16,058 votes. The victory, he said, marked more than a personal milestone. In an interview, Ghosh alleged that dissent within the Bengali film industry had been systematically suppressed since 2021. He described a culture where technicians, directors and actors who opposed the ruling party’s directives risked boycotts and loss of work. “When I protested what I saw as arbitrary diktats, technicians were made to march wearing black bands with slogans to boycott me,” Ghosh said. “Many colleagues could not stand by me then. They feared being labelled unsuitable and losing their livelihoods.” Ghosh argued that alignment with the Trinamool Congress had become a prerequisite for access to committees, festivals and commercial opportunities in Tollywood. “Either you joined their rallies and stayed silent on statewide injustices, or you were sidelined,” he said. “I believe that process ends now.” Ghosh added that Chatterjee was not alone in calling. Directors Srijit Mukherji, Kaushik Ganguly and Shiboprosad Mukherjee also phoned on Monday night. “We discussed the same concerns. We plan to meet. The industry’s long period of distress has affected many people, not just me,” he said. [Translated from a TV9 Bangla report]
