Post Poll Violence Registered from Birbhum, Hoogly, Howrah

Bolpur: The first violence following the Assembly Election Results that was declared on May 19 was registered at Birbhum’s Nanoor, Hoogly’s Pandua, Burdwan City, in west Midnapore and at South 24 Parganas. 


Reports are that two Trinamool workers, Burhan Sheikh and Lal Sheikh are suspected of being shot by CPM workers yesterday. The two people, who were going to a nearby market riding their bicycles, were shot by few motorcycle-borne men. Also, while Burhan, 35, was shot at his waist, another person Lal, aged 30, were shot at his right hand. Following this shooting and violence, TMC district head Anubrata Mondal said: “After the CPM won the Nanoor seat, they are perpetrating violence.” Another woman who is a TMC worker’s wife was beaten up by some CPM people in Nanoor and was hospitalized.
However, the blame game continues as CPM District Secretary Mansa Hansda denied all the allegations and pointed to TMC’s internal dilemmas at Birbhum. “Our party has no connection with the incident. It may be the fallout of Trinamul infighting,” Haansda added.
In Hoogly’s Pandua, violence was registered too. A 50-people TMC team led by footballer Rahim Nabi had allegedly damaged two CPM party offices and house of a local CPM leader. A third complaint from Burdwan was lodged where former CPM MP Saidul Haque’s house was attacked.
