TT  |  Cooch Behar   |  09.04.21: Sixteen persons were arrested for attacking Bengal BJP president Dilip Ghosh at Sitalkuchi in Cooch Behar district on Wednesday evening.

District police and administration have sent separate reports to the Election Commission and senior state police officers on the attack on Ghosh’s convoy.

He had suffered minor injuries in the attack. 

On Wednesday, suspected Trinamul supporters attacked BJP members who were attending a public meeting. Ghosh, who was present, alleged the Trinamul activists had lobbed bombs and ransacked a number of cars. 

Again, while he was moving out of Sitalkuchi, stones and bricks were thrown at his vehicle and some other cars.

The incident had prompted the BJP to organise protests in different parts of Bengal, including Calcutta. “In total, 15 vehicles were ransacked. We have heard 16 persons were arrested and hope the police and the Election Commission will take steps for law and order during and after the polls,” district BJP secretary Sanjoy Chakraborty.
