Agnimitra Paul, president of the women's front of the Bengal BJP, in an exclusive interview to India Today, blamed the "goons" of Trinamool Congress for "beating up" a party worker and his aged mother.
"The TMC goons did not even leave an aged women and attacked our party worker and his mother. There is not a single day in West Bengal where there is no violence against women," Agnimitra Paul said.
The BJP alleged that a party worker and his aged mother were beaten up by TMC supporters in West Bengal's North 24. The TMC, however, denied the allegation and stated that the BJP is making false claims in desperation.
West Bengal Governor RN Ravi has dissolved the state legislative assembly with effect from May 7 after completion of its term. With this, Mamata Banerjee, who refused to resign after TMC's debacle in the assembly poll, is no longer the chief minister.
Days after Congress severed its long-standing alliance with DMK to extend conditional support to the TVK, the DMK passed a resolution condemning the grand old party for betrayal and said the 'INDIA bloc is gone'.
