Mamata Banerjee attacked in Nandigram; Violence unfolding ahead of polls? | The Urban Debate

On The Urban Debate with Tanvi Shukla, today we discuss the massive political development in West Bengal politics. Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee was allegedly attacked by 4 men in Nandigram, West Bengal where she filed her nomination papers today. No cops to safeguard the state's chief minister; BJP rejected the incident, claiming it a political ploy for sympathy. Tanvi Shukla takes you through the dramatic incident. Mamata Banerjee alleged an attack on her by some 'attackers' while she was near her car. She is reportedly injured in the 'attack'. Mamata Banerjee is leaving for Kolkata from Barolia, Nandigram where the incident occurred, for treatment. ‘If they were noticing security lapses since morning, why did they not complain the entire day?; If today chief minister is not safe in West Bengal, it means what we were saying about violence in the state is true’, says BJP’s Priyanka Tibrewal. ‘If this can happen to the chief minister so early in the campaign, how violent will the campaign get as we get closer to the polling days’, adds, Nilanjan Mukhopadhyay, senior journalist, and author.
