WB by-polls: BJP's Amit Malviya alleges TMC "goons" attacked party Madarihat candidate

New Delhi: Bharatiya Janata Party leader Amit Malviya on Wednesday alleged that party candidate from Madarahit by-poll seat, Rahul Lohar's vehicle was vandalised by Trinamool Congress "goons" which, he said, was also attacked with "life-threatening weapons."
In a post on X, Malviya said, "Rahul Lohar, BJP candidate from Madarihat, attacked at Booth No. 14/62 of the Mujnai Tea Garden. Rahul is a Tribal and leader of tea garden workers. TMC goons vandalized the BJP candidate's vehicle with sharp objects and attacked him with life-threatening weapons under the watchful eyes of Mamata Banerjee's police."
"Democracy and citizen rights are a sham in West Bengal. Mamata Banerjee is less of a Chief Minister, more like ring leader of a criminal syndicate," he added.
Earlier today, Rahul Lohar cast his vote for the Madarihat assembly by-poll and said that the people in his constituency will answer the atrocities committed against women in this poll.
"The people of Madarihat have been blessing the BJP since 2014... I am confident that the people will give an answer to the corruption in government and atrocities committed against women in this by-election," said Lohar.
He reiterated that every voter from each family will cast their vote against the atrocities committed against women.
When asked about the results, he exuded confidence in winning the by-elections. "We will win 100 per cent," he said.
The by-election in Madarihat was necessitated following BJP leader Manoj Tigga's resignation after winning an Alipuarduar parliamentary seat from the BJP's ticket in the general election held earlier this year.
The by-elections in Taldangra, Sitai, Madarihat, Naihati, Medinipur, and Haroa assembly constituencies are underway, with results being declared on November 23. Expect Madarihat; all other seats were won by TMC in the 2021 assembly elections.
