The commissioner said that the accused was talking nonsense. This is a serious issue. We are trying to find out the real motive of the accused. His vehicle has also been seized.
Mamta was about to go to Martyr’s Day program
Shortly after the incident, Mamta Banerjee was about to go to participate in the Martyr’s Day program. Thousands of TMC workers from across the state have reached Kolkata to attend the event.
It is estimated that more than one lakh people will participate in the Martyr’s Day program.
The event is celebrated in the memory of 13 Congress supporters who lost their lives in police firing in 1993. At that time there was a Left government in the state and Mamta was the president of the State Youth Congress. Even after forming the Trinamool Congress party, Mamta celebrates Martyr’s Day in memory of the slain Congress workers.
