Saugata urges Shah to ensure peace

Kolkata: Senior Trinamool Congress MP Saugata Roy on Tuesday, referring to the repeated egg attacks on party functionaries, wrote to Union home minister Amit Shah, telling him that ensuring peace in Bengal is also the BJP’s responsibility.Roy in his letter wrote, “You are probably aware that since WB assembly election results came out on May 4, attacks on TMC workers have been happening in West Bengal. Over 2000 TMC offices have been vandalised, TMC workers beaten up and eggs thrown at TMC leaders. Yesterday, TMC offices in ward no.93, Kolkata Corporation, where I stay, were broken up. Police did not do anything, though I lodged a complaint.”He said, “But I am writing to you only after being shocked by yesterday’s incident (the Kunal Ghosh incident)...”He added, “I complained to OC, Kalighat PS, Deputy Commissioner (South) and DG, Security. I would urge you to ensure that such incidents do not recur, since this brings a bad name to the state. Now that BJP has won a big majority in West Bengal, ensuring peace is the responsibility of BJP.”
