"Bengal's Daughter": Mamata Banerjee Visits Grieving Cooch Behar Families After Deadly Firing

"No one can understand your pain better than Bengal's daughter," Trinamool Congress tweets.

West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee today visited the families of four persons who died in clashes with security forces at a polling booth in Cooch Behar district on Saturday. The tragic incident had earlier sparked some sharp exchanges between the ruling Trinamool Congress and the opposition BJP. In a tweet posted today by the Trinamool, the party shared a picture of Ms Banerjee holding a baby in Sitalkuchi, about 680 kilometres from Kolkata, where the violence was reported from. "No one can understand your pain better than Bengal's daughter. Moving image from @MamataOfficial's visit to grieving families of Sitalkuchi genocide," the tweet said. Four people were shot dead on Saturday outside a polling booth in Sitakulchi while polling was taking place in the fourth phase of the West Bengal Assembly election.
