Trinamool MLA's Facebook Post To "Look After" BJP Workers Sparks Row

Trinamool MLA from Dinhata Udayan Guha wrote the post After the convoy of Abhishek Banerjee allegedly came under attack in Tripura.

A Trinamool Congress MLA today threatened to "look after" BJP leaders and workers in Dinhata area of West Bengal's Coochbehar district "in a proper manner", a day after the convoy of party national general secretary Abhishek Banerjee allegedly came under attack in BJP-ruled Tripura. The BJP demanded penal action against Dinhata MLA Udayan Guha for issuing a threat in public against workers of an opposition party. "After the Tripura incident, BJP workers and leaders in Dinhata will have to be looked after in a proper manner," Mr Guha's Facebook post in Bengali read. The Trinamool leader later clarified, "In my Facebook post, I didn't speak about attacking anyone."
