Siliguri, 02nd February: Allegations have surfaced that two BJP workers were assaulted for chanting ‘Jai Shri Ram’ during a Trinamool Congress rally in the Dabgram-Fulbari area on Sunday night. The incident reportedly took place near Bhavesh More, when the rally was in progress and two young men raised the slogan.
According to reports, the two men were beaten and injured, collapsing at the spot. The incident created a wave of tension in the locality.
Dabgram-Fulbari MLA Shikha Chatterjee visited the Ashighar police outpost to file a complaint and demanded strict legal action against the perpetrators. She stated that freedom of expression is a fundamental democratic right, and attacking ordinary youths during a political rally is completely undemocratic and condemnable. Chatterjee urged authorities to identify those responsible and ensure stringent punishment.
