BJP candidate and Sandeshkhali survivor Rekha Patra moves NCW against TMC leader. What triggered complaint?

Hindustan Times  

Bharatiya Janata Party candidate from Basirhat Rekha Patra, who is among the survivors of Sandeshkhali assault, has lodged a complaint against Trinamool Congress candidate from Tamluk Debangshu Bhattacharya for alleged violation of privacy. Rekha Patra, one of the Sandeshkhali victims, is the BJP candidate from Basirhat for the Lok Sabha polls. "Recently, through a post on Debangshu Bhattacharyya's Facebook account, the TMC candidate from Tamluk has shared the private details of my client, such as phone number, bank account details, Swasthya Sathi scheme details, as well as the Duare Sarkar scheme details, which is a clear violation of my client's right to privacy and an outrage to her modesty by making her personal details public," Patra's lawyer said in the letter. Debangshu Bhattacharya is the head of TMC's social media cell, who composed the party's campaign song ‘Khela Hobe’ during the 2021 assembly elections.
