Bengal revokes BJP MP Anant Maharaj’s Banga Bibhushan after Netaji remarks
The West Bengal government revoked BJP MP Anant Maharaj's Banga Bibhushan award after he called Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose a 'war criminal' during a public meeting on August 9. This decision followed Chief Minister Suvendu Adhikari's warning against derogatory remarks about the freedom fighter. Maharaj can no longer claim the award or its associated privileges.
