TMC-BJP clash erupts as Amit Shah's roadshow nears Mamata's residence

Kolkata (The Uttam Hindu): Politics is heating up regarding the West Bengal Assembly elections. Amidst this political heat, Union Home Minister Amit Shah held a roadshow in Bhawanipur today. The roadshow began at Hazra crossing and ended at the Survey Building. During Amit Shah's roadshow, a scuffle broke out between BJP and TMC workers. Workers from both parties confronted each other, leading to a tense situation. The Home Minister's roadshow became a topic of discussion when his convoy passed near Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee's residence. During this time, BJP and Trinamool Congress workers clashed. The Bhawanipur seat is significant because it is considered a stronghold of Mamata Banerjee. Her contesting from here makes it even more prominent. This time, the BJP has also deployed its full force in this constituency, making the contest even more interesting.

Today, when Shah's convoy arrived at Kalighat, a short distance from Mamata Banerjee's residence, TMC workers shouted slogans like "Jai Bangla" and "Mamata Banerjee Zindabad" in front of the convoy. People wearing black cloth on their heads chanted "Amit Shah Go Back" and waved black flags. This led to clashes between TMC and BJP workers. To control the situation, police erected barricades and controlled the crowd.
