On July 21, BJP Rajya Sabha MP Swapan Dasgupta tweeted, “Interesting @MamataOfficial has declared August 16 as “Khela Hobe Divas”. It is the day the Muslim League launched its Direct Action Day & began the Great Calcutta Killings in 1946. In today’s West Bengal, “Khela Hobe” has come to symbolise a wave of terror attacks on opponents.”
