West Bengal election tensions escalate as Congress veteran alleges TMC attack. Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury, a five-time MP contesting his first Assembly election in 30 years, reported being attacked by Trinamool Congress workers during his Berhampore campaign. The incident highlights growing political friction ahead of the two-phase West Bengal Assembly elections scheduled for April 23 and 29. Chowdhury has also accused TMC of deliberately stalling rail infrastructure projects in his constituency to deny him political credit, claiming the Railways offered full funding. He argues the ruling party prioritizes political advantage over development. The Congress veteran faces competition from BJP and TMC candidates in a closely watched battle that could reshape West Bengal's political landscape during these crucial elections.
