A fresh political row has erupted in West Bengal after Abhishek Banerjee accused the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) of orchestrating protests and an attack against him during a recent visit. The Trinamool Congress has claimed the incident was politically motivated and part of a broader campaign to intimidate opposition leaders. The controversy has intensified the already sharp rivalry between TMC and BJP following the state's turbulent political developments. TMC leaders have demanded action against those involved, while the BJP has rejected the allegations. The episode has further heightened tensions in West Bengal's increasingly polarized political landscape. (PC: The Indian EXPRESS)
