An alleged attack on Abhishek Banerjee in Sonarpur, West Bengal, has sparked a fresh political controversy, escalating tensions between the Trinamool Congress (TMC) and the BJP. Banerjee was visiting families affected by alleged post-election violence when the incident took place.
Kalyan Banerjee on Thursday responded sharply to allegations made by fellow Trinamool Congress MP Kakoli Ghosh Dastidar, who accused him of verbally abusing her inside the Lok Sabha.
