BJP's Jadavpur candidate's car attacked

May 19, 2019 12:05

Jadavpur BJP candidate Anupam Hazra's car has been vandalised. His team alleges that that it was done by TMC workers who were trying to attack him.

"TMC is doing this because they fear defeat. My team has been attacked, our polling officers were threatened and my workers have suffered injuries," said Hazra.

BJP leader Babul Supriyo launched an attack on Mamata Banerjee over the repeated incidents of violence and says that violence is bound to take place when the CM of the state says 'she will take revenge'.

Talking about TMC's notice over Modi's Kedarnath visit, he says, "It's up to the media to cover PM's visit or not. You cover Sachin when he votes... TMC should have clarity about their complaints, this is desperation in the face of defeat."
