Amid Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) recovering a huge catchment of arms and ammunition from Sandeshkhali, West Bengal Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) chief Sukanta Majumdar said that the riverine island is "heading towards a dangerous phase," reported news agency ANI.

"Sandeshkhali is heading towards a dangerous phase. Firstly, there were controversies about women getting raped, then there were reports of a drug racket. Now we're getting news of arms being recovered from there," Majumdar said speaking to ANI on Friday at West Bengal's Gangarampur.
