Digital Desk, February 28: Bharatiya Janata Party has given 12-hour state wide bandh on Monday to protest against violence during civic polls in the state on Sunday. ”What happened today was not polling but a mockery of of democracy,” BJP spokesperson Samik Bhattacharjya said.
Notably, Bharatiya Janata Party leaders were arrested while they are marching on the streets of Siliguri in support of the 12-hour bandh. ”Our workers were protesting peacefully, but they are beaten up. The police are playing the role of a cadre for TMC. This is against democracy,” BJP president Sukanta Majumdar added.
