He also alleged that several BJP activists were severely beaten up by ruling party-backed goons, with some sustaining serious injuries. At the time of filing this report, Majumdar's convoy had left the spot. The local Trinamool Congress leadership, however, denied the allegations. According to the chairman of the Trinamool Congress-run Nabadwip Municipality, Biman Saha, the tension broke out at the main bus stand in Nabadwip after BJP supporters allegedly attacked a local office of the Trinamool Congress' trade union wing, INTTUC. He claimed that when INTTUC supporters were protesting near the bus stand, they were again attacked by local BJP supporters, leading to scuffles between the two groups.
