In this edition of 'Editorial,' Mr. Sujit Nair delves into the ongoing turmoil unfolding in Sandeshkhali, West Bengal. Situated in the Sundarbans of North 24 Parganas district, approximately 75 km from Kolkata, the island has become a focal point of protests since February 8, putting the Trinamool Congress (TMC) state government on the defensive.
