JP Nadda’s convoy attacked, car vandalised by TMC workers

बंगाल पुलिस को पहले ही राष्ट्रीय अध्यक्ष श्री @JPNadda जी के कार्यक्रम की जानकारी दी गई थी, लेकिन एक बार फिर बंगाल पुलिस नाकाम रही। सिराकोल बस स्टैंड के पास पुलिस के सामने ही #TMC गुंडों ने हमारे कार्यकर्ताओं को मारा और मेरी गाड़ी पर पथराव किया। #BengalSupportsBJP pic.twitter.com/G882Ewhq9M

Ahead of West Bengal polls in 2021, Bhartiya Janata Party President JP Nadda’s convoy who was on visit to Kolkata to begin poll campaigning had been attacked by TMC workers.

The incident occurred when the convoy was on its way to the Diamond Harbour section of Kolkata’s South 24 Parganas district.

BJP National Secretary General Kailash Vijayvargiya’s car was also absolutely ransacked in the melee, sources in the saffron party told PTI. Media personnel cars, too, have not been exempted, sources said.

“On our way to Diamond Harbour, TMC supporters blocked the road and pelted Naddaji’s vehicle and other cars in the convoy with stones. This only shows the true colour of the TMC,” Bengal BJP chief Dilip Ghosh said.

“There has been a security lapse during party president JP Nadda’s visit to the state. There was no presence of police at his events yesterday. I have written to Home Minister Amit Shah and administration here,” Dilip Ghosh added. However, taking cognizance of the security lapses, the police later intervened and ensured the passage of the convoy.

Stating that he was attacked by ‘TMC goons’, JP Nadda said, “The sights that I got to see on my way to this event shows how Mamata’s Bengal has become a state of intolerance and lawlessness. I am here by the grace of Maa Durga. I assure you that this Govt will not last for too long and we will end this gundaraj.”

Meanwhile, Ghosh also wrote a letter to Home Secretary Amit Shah, saying that at their party office in Hastings, Kolkata, a crowd of 200 plus sticks, bamboos, etc. had been demonstrating the raising of black flags, while the police had not interfered and had casually permitted them to reach the narrow perimeter of Nadda’s car.

Ahead of West Bengal polls in 2021, Nadda is on a two-day visit to Kolkata as the party has begun it’s campaigning.
