BJP president Amit Shah’s road show in Kolkata was attacked by members of the ruling Trinamool dispensation who proceeded to torch some of the vehicles which were part of the rally, ABP News reported.
Sticks were also hurled at the truck in which Shah was present, which resulted in clashes erupting between party workers, ANI reported. This act resulted in Shah calling off the road show.
As per a Navbharat Times report, stones were also pelted at the roadshow which resulted in injuries to both BJP workers and media persons present there. The Kolkata police then resorted to lathicharge to bring the situation under control.
A Zee News report claims that clashes broke out between TMC and BJP workers at College square after sticks were hurled at the BJP president’s vehicle. The TMC workers were reportedly present near the road show route while holding black flags and anti-BJP placards.
