Some Lesser Known Facts About Dilip Ghosh
He was born into a modest family in a village of Paschim Medinipur district, West Bengal.
After completing his education at a village school, he moved to Jhargram for higher education.
Soon, he inclined towards the ideology of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) and joined it as a Pracharak.
Ghosh was sent to Andaman and Nicobar Islands as the in-charge of RSS.
He also worked as an assistant to former RSS chief KS Sudarshan.
After joining BJP, he defeated his nearest rival Gyan Singh Sohanpal (Congress) in the May 2016 West Bengal Assembly election.
Gyan Singh Sohanpal of Congress was a sitting MLA of the Kharagpur Sadar assembly seat seven times in a row from 1982 to 2011, and Ghoshâs victory, was indeed a historic one, as he was a new-comer in politics.
In September 2016, as the President of West Bengal BJP, he went on a 7-day trip to New York, Boston, New Jersey, and Chicago, to highlight the plight of the Hindus in West Bengal.
On 16 December 2016, he was injured during a protest against the comments of Maulana Noor-ur Rahman Barkati, the Shahi Imam of the Tipu Sultan Mosque in Kolkata in which he said that Ghosh should be âpelted with stones and kicked out of Bengal.â
On 22 January 2018, he was admitted to a private hospital with complaints of severe back pain.
