What's behind this
West Bengal minister Dilip Ghosh on Saturday dismissed Trinamool MP Abhishek Banerjee’s claim that his Kolkata residence was attacked, questioning who would have time to kill the leader and saying that any night‑time havoc would be countered. Banerjee alleged that “BJP hooligans” or “BJP goons” assaulted his home on his birth anniversary, calling it the seventh attempt on his life in six months, and TMC leader Mamata Banerjee said the incident was part of a broader disruption of a Kali Puja celebration. The alleged attack sparked clashes between BJP and TMC supporters outside the house, with police resorting to baton charges, while the BJP denied involvement.
