A woman allegedly tried to attack former West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee outside her Kalighat residence in Kolkata on Tuesday. According to Trinamool Congress leaders, the woman rushed towards Banerjee as she left to inaugurate a Durga Puja pandal. Party workers caught her and reportedly found a knife in her possession. They later handed her over to Kalighat police. The alleged incident raised concerns over Banerjee’s security. Meanwhile, TMC workers staged a protest in Rajabazar, demanding Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar’s resignation over the Special Intensive Revision of electoral rolls.
