Tapan who is familiar as a close associate of the former civic body chairman Ashim Saha and the party’s Toto union leader attacked Dutta along with his more than a hundred associates. They ransacked the party office and beat up Dutta with lathis.

The party workers immediately grabbed Tapan when he attacked with sharp edge weapon. Later police reached there and rescued Dutta to the police station.

Surprisingly, Tapan along with his associates carrying TMC flags barged into the Kotwali police station to lodge a complaint, but police detained him.

Meanwhile, TMC candidate Koushani Mukherjee and other TMC leaders reached the police station and consequently police arrested Tapan in connection with the attack.

Koushani said, “The man is not associated with the party and if he belongs to the party then why he ransacked the party office and attacked the party leader with sharp edge weapon.”

“I am here contesting alone. I don’t know anyone. I don’t know who is rival. I came here to protect my party leader who was seriously attacked by a man. It’s a crime and I have asked the police to put him in jail so that he could not come out from jail during the election period,” she said.
