Kalyan Banerjee alleged that the mob attacked him and injured him by hitting him with a ball. BJP has reacted to Kalyan Banerjee’s allegation that TMC MPs are doing drama. He is not injured. However, within 24 hours, politics has heated up due to the sloganeering of the angry mob against first Abhishek Banerjee and then Kalyan Banerjee and their attempts to confront them. Mamta Banerjee, Abhishek Banerjee and Kalyan Banerjee allege that BJP is instigating attacks from its workers. At the same time, BJP says that it has no involvement in these incidents. BJP says that the common people in West Bengal suffered so much during the 15-year rule of Mamata Banerjee that now their anger is coming out.
