Suvendu Alleges Female Leader Of BJP Minority Morcha Beaten Up By TMC In Cooch Behar

New Delhi: BJP leader Suvendu Adhikari on Friday alleged that a female leader of his party's Minority Morcha was trashed by TMC supporters in the Cooch Behar district.

Adhikari, the leader of the opposition in the West Bengal assembly, said he has written to the National Human Rights Commission (NHRC), National Commission for Women (NCW) and National Commission for Minorities (NCM) about the incident, urging them to investigate the incident that happened on June 25.

"A female leader of BJP Minority Morcha was beaten up by TMC goons in Gokhasdanga. Her clothes were also torn in public. She is at present admitted to a hospital. The police are not taking any action against the accused," he alleged.

Adhikari expressed hope that teams of the NHRC, NCW, and NCM would soon visit the area.

The victim told reporters from the hospital, "TMC goons said they were punishing me for being associated with the BJP."

The TMC dubbed the allegations as baseless, claiming that the incident was the fallout of a property dispute.

"The TMC has nothing to do with the incident. This incident is the result of a property dispute. The allegations are baseless and politically motivated," a party leader from the district said.

Police said they were investigating the matter.
