A day after Trinamool Congress leader Abhishek Banerjee was allegedly attacked in Sonapur in West Bengal's South 24 Parganas, another party MP, Kalyan Banerjee, was allegedly heckled in front of a police station in the Hooghly district on Sunday.
A video of the incident showed Kalyan Banerjee walking when a massive crowd is heard chanting 'chor, chor, chor' (thief, thief, thief). As Banerjee walks towards them, security personnel are seen trying to control the crowd, when suddenly the TMC MP holds his head with his right hand and slips to the ground, with his mobile phone in his left hand.
Security personnel are seen bringing the crowd under control, as others help Banerjee get off the ground. Banerjee appears to be in pain as his supporters hold him and attend to him amid the sloganeering crowd and police forces.
While Kalyan Banerjee has claimed he suffered head injuries, there is no proof of any actual attack on him. He blamed the supporters of the Bharatiya Janata Party for the incident.
