Malda North Malda South

The internet has been suspended in parts of Bengal as violent protests over the Citizenship (Amendment) Act enter a third straight day. Suspension has been announced in Malda, Murshidabad, Uttar Dinajpur and Howrah districts, as well as some in North 24 and South 24 Paraganas

It was a "difficult decision" to join TMC, said Mausam Noor, sitting behind her desk in her ancestral home, a legacy of Ghani Khan Choudhary, her uncle and veteran Congress leader from Malda, who represented it eight-times in Parliament.

Out of the 61 candidates across parties contesting from the five West Bengal seats -- Balurghat, Jangipur, Murshidabad, Malda Uttar (North) and Malda Dakshin (South) -- in the third phase of the Lok Sabha elections, 11 have assets worth over Rs 1 crore, while 15 have declared criminal cases against them, said a study released on Thursday.

In a chilling throwback to the horrific Nirbhaya case, a mentally challenged tribal woman has been brutally gang-raped in north Bengal. The 30-year-old was brutalized with iron rods, her intestines spilled out and she was left to die in a forested area at Kusumondi in South Dinajpur district, police and hospital sources said.
