Sandeshkhali: Congress leader Adhir Chowdhury stopped by police, slams Mamata

The Hindu  

West Bengal Congress chief Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury was on Friday stopped by police on way to restive Sandeshkhali area, which has been rocked by protests over alleged atrocities on villagers by TMC leaders, citing prohibitory orders. The Congress delegation spearheaded by Mr. Chowdhury, encountered initial hindrance from police officials at Sarberia and subsequently at Rampur, along the path to Sandeshkhali in North 24 Parganas district. Responding to Ms. Banerjee's assertion that the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh has a presence in Sandeshkhali and has been a focal point of communal clashes, Mr. Chowdhury, a longstanding critic of the chief minister, questioned the relevance of the RSS in the violence. Earlier in the day, a delegation of BJP MPs, including two Union ministers, was also prevented from visiting Sandeshkhali by the police, citing prohibitory orders under Section 144 of the CrPC.
