News Desk: Leaders Firhad Hakim, Jyotipriyo Mullick and other TMC workers did a peaceful rally at Titagarh on Tuesday where BJP leader Manish Shukla was shot dead. The leaders took a dig at their arch rival Bharatiya Janata Party and said that BJP is trying to create tension in the area for their own political benefits.
Hakim said “The BJP is trying to fuel tension in the area to serve its political interests. After the saffron party won the Barrackpore Lok Sabha seat last year; it let loose a reign of terror on the entire belt. We will not allow the BJP to turn Barrackpore into killing fields”
Mullick said ” The BJP brought in goons from other states to create tension. BJP MP Arjun Singh is responsible for the tension and the trouble in the area. His men have unleashed violence on innocent locals and TMC workers. The police and the CID will bring out the truth in Shukla’s murder case. The TMC is nowhere involved in this politics of killing and arson. The BJP believes in it”
