On Monday afternoon, Trinamool Congress (TMC) workers disrupted the final campaigning for the September 30 bypoll in Kolkata’s Bhawanipore assembly seat, impeding Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) national vice-president Dilip Ghosh and shouting “go back” shouts. As a result, the BJP decided to file a petition with the Election Commission, requesting that the election in Bhawanipore be called off.
Ghosh was canvassing on foot at Jadu Babu Bazar when the event occurred. When his companions got into a confrontation with TMC workers, Bharat Narayan Singh, a BJP worker, suffered minor injuries.
