Mamata Banerjee Fumes Over Attack on Abhishek

West Bengal Chief Minister and Trinamool Congress (TMC) supremo Mamata Banerjee on Saturday launched a scathing attack on the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) after an alleged assault on her nephew and TMC national general secretary Abhishek Banerjee. In a fiery post on social media, she declared, 'Rulers became killers—shame on you BJP.'

According to the TMC, Abhishek had requested security prior to visiting the family of Sanju Karmakar, a victim of post-poll violence. Despite the attack, he chose to stay with the bereaved family, refusing to turn back. The party shared a video showing Abhishek surrounded by supporters, with the caption praising his resolve.

The incident has escalated tensions between the ruling TMC and the opposition BJP in West Bengal, with both sides trading accusations. Mamata Banerjee's strong words reflect the deepening political rift in the state.
