The police sources said that the number plate of the motorbike was also covered.

The saffron camp however, had distanced themselves from this incident.

Meanwhile, before leaving for Delhi, former Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee slammed BJP over this incident and mentioned that she will visit Bhattacharya’s house after returning from Delhi.

“We have ideological differences but during the TMC regime such a thing was not seen. I have spoken with Bikash Ranjan Bhattacharya. Since I am going to Delhi, I couldn’t visit his place but will visit later,” said Mamata.

Taking to X, Mamata said, “The “lawlessness” of West Bengal, with Cases of 2454 Rapes, 600 Murders, 13,114 Attempted to Murders and 32,341 Grievous Assaults in the past five months has converted itself to a State Sponsored Anarchy where Advocates, who are Officers of the Court, are being attacked throughout the State. Only a consolidated resistance remains to be the sole remedy.” (sic)
