The convoy of BJP president JP Nadda and Kailash Vijayvargiya, the party general secretary in-charge of West Bengal.was attacked with bricks and stones near Kolkata on Thursday afternoon, allegedly by supporters of Bengal's ruling Trinamool Congress. BJP leaders were injured in the attack and many cars were damaged, the party alleged, accusing the Mamata Banerjee government of serious lapses in security. Home Minister Amit Shah has asked for a report on what he called "sponsored violence" and said the state government would have to answer to people of the state.
It is said that Nadda and Vijayvargiya were en route to Diamond Harbour when incident took place. Diamond Harbour is the parliamentary constituency of Trinamool MP Abhishek Banerjee, the nephew of the Chief Minister. Some BJP workers on motorcycles were attacked with sticks. Several media vehicles were also hit with stones."Mukul Roy and Kailash Vijayvargiya were injured in the attack. It is a shame on democracy. There isn't a car in our convoy which was not attacked. I am safe because I was travelling in a bulletproof car. This goonda raj in West Bengal has to end," Nadda told reporters.
The Trinamool, however, accused the BJP of "intentional provocation" and attempting to malign the state government in the run-up to polls next year. They are creating videos of incidents and sharing with media...Nautanki is going on. They will say Pakistan is attacking us, Nepal, Israel," Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee said. Mamata further said that the BJP does the same when she visits Delhi. "What do they do when I visit Delhi? Every time I visit Delhi, BJP guys gherao us," the chief minister alleged.
