TMC seeks action against perpetrators of attack on Abhishek Banerjee’s convoy

It was ‘meticulously planned by ruling dispensation in Tripura’

Two days after the convoy of Trinamool Congress (TMC) general secretary Abhishek Banerjee came under attack in Tripura allegedly by the supporters of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), the party has written a letter to the Director General of Police, urging prompt action against the perpetrators. The party has pointed out that Mr. Banerjee was on his way to Tripureswari Temple in Agartala when “he came under violent attack from certain anti-social elements who had placed themselves on the route”. “What was shocking was that the anti-social elements, while holding BJP flags, were carrying iron rods and sticks and other articles which were meant to cause harm to Shri Abhishek Banerjee.”
