Watch: BJP workers clash with police over death of party worker in West Bengal

BJP workers clashed with police in Howrah district of West Bengal on Thursday over the death of a party worker.

BJP workers were seen trying to scale the closed gates of the police station leading to a scuffle with the force personnel on duty.

The BJP had called a 12-hour bandh in Bagnan assembly constituency area against the killing of its worker Kinkar Majhi, who succumbed to his bullet injuries on Wednesday.

They were denied permission to hold a rally which led to the scuffle with the police.

Trouble began when BJP Yuva Morcha state president and Bishnupur MP Saumitra Khan went inside the Bagnan police station to talk to senior officers after the saffron party was denied permission to take out the rally.

BJP workers blocked roads and burnt tyres to register their protest against the killing.
