Opposition leader Suvendu Adhikari has launched a scathing attack on the state government, labeling the last 15 years a dark era for Bengal's cooperatives.

Addressing a women-led society in Madhyamgram, he mocked the administration’s incompetence.

Adhikari emphasized that cooperatives are the backbone of economic strength and female empowerment, urging a bold shift toward financial independence to rebuild the state’s crumbling infrastructure.
