<p>On Monday afternoon, Trinamool Congress (TMC) workers disrupted the final campaigning for the September 30 bypoll in Kolkata&#8217;s Bhawanipore assembly seat, impeding Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) national vice-president Dilip Ghosh and shouting &#8220;go back&#8221; shouts. As a result, the BJP decided to file a petition with the Election Commission, requesting that the election in Bhawanipore be called off.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>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.</p>
