BJP says another leader ‘attacked’ in West Bengal during flood-relief drive; TMC terms it ‘baseless’

BJP MLA Manoj Kumar Oraon was allegedly attacked by TMC workers in Alipurduar while distributing flood relief, a day after two senior BJP leaders were assaulted in Jalpaiguri. The TMC denied the allegations, claiming Oraon assaulted an elderly man first. Prime Minister Modi condemned the attacks, criticizing the TMC’s insensitivity and the state’s law and order.
