Trinamul allegation

 

COOCH BEHAR, March 19: As the rural polls coming closer the CPI-M is trying hard to suppress the Trinamul Congress in different areas of Cooch Behar district. They are planning newer methods to damage the morale of Trinamul Congress supporters. To thwart the CPI-M's ill-motivated designs the Trinamul Congress may have to adopt tit for tat policy, the vice-president of District Trinamul Congress, Mr Niranjan Dutta declared.

 

Mr Dutta alleged that on Tuesday night armed CPI-M supporters attacked Trinamul Congress supporters when they were returning to their residences after attending a party meeting at Baro-Balasi village in Jiranpur. Three Trinamul men were injured seriously and were admitted to MJN Hospital. On the previous night too, an armed gang of CPI-M supporters injured three Trinamul men at Ambari-Bhojanpur in Dawaguri. This incident occurred after the Trinamul Congress supporters lodged complaints to the Cooch Behar-I BDO over mismanagement of the NREGA work. They reportedly complained that bills were passed without verifying the work of bridge and road construction in that locality.

 

The Trinamul Congress leader, Mr Dutta demanded that the CPI-M men involved in the attack on their supporters should be arrested immediately. Otherwise they may have to take up tit for tat policy, he threatened. On the otherhand, district CPI-M sources winded up the allegations as baseless ones. []
