The police behave badly with people.
In the 12-hour ‘Bengal Bandh’ called by the BJP, said Roopa Ganguly of the party, TMC people are saying that people are not following the bandh as buses are empty. This means people are observing the bandh. Did you see me forcing anyone to follow the bandh? The police are behaving very badly these days, aren’t they ashamed?
Police arrested many BJP leaders
Several BJP leaders have been arrested in the state for trying to enforce the bandh. Ganguly and Paul were arrested from Gariahat area in south Kolkata when they were urging shopkeepers to shut shops and people to support Kolkata Municipal Corporation councillor Sajal Ghosh. he was arrested from his residence in Sealdah soon after a scuffle broke out between BJP and Trinamool supporters while they were trying to enforce the bandh at nearby Kole Bazaar. BJP state president and Union minister Sukant Majumdar led a procession in Baguhati and during the process he got into an argument with the police who were trying to stop him.
Bengal people with BJP
BJP leader Locket Chatterjee said the issue for which we have come out on the streets is that the public is behind us. We are with the people. There is no law and order in West Bengal. It has been proved that Mamata Banerjee will not give justice to the woman and is trying to save the culprit.
