Several Trinamool Congress workers were injured when one of the 49 buses taking them from West Bengal to Delhi to take part in a protest programme met with an accident in Jharkhand on October 1.
The bus careened and went down to a field behind the highway, leaving a few passengers slightly injured. Its occupants were brought back to Purulia town in West Bengal for medical treatment, a party leader said.
The TMC asserted that as the Railways did not allot a special train, the party was taking 49 bus-load of protesters to Delhi to demand the State’s dues from the BJP-led central government under the 100-day job guarantee programme under MGNREGA.
Following the accident, senior West Bengal Minister Shashi Panja accused the BJP of forcing the ruling party in Bengal to arrange buses as a special train was not allotted.
"Check your hands @Dr SukantaBJP, they're red with the blood of those injured," she wrote on X (formerly, Twitter).
BJP West Bengal president Sukanta Majumdar claimed that while TMC leaders were travelling by aeroplanes, the protesters were being made to take buses to Delhi.
"The way TMC leaders are enjoying the luxury of flights and pushed these innocent people to the brink of life risk is condemnable," he wrote on X.
