Watch: Stone pelting during BJP rally in Kolkata ahead of Bengal polls

Violence erupted in Kolkata during an election rally on January 18.

A BJP worker was allegedly injured when stones were pelted at the rally.

The stone pelters allegedly carried TMC party flags.

In response, BJP workers also allegedly indulged in violence.

Two-wheelers at the roadside were allegedly vandalized and stones were also pelted at buildings and shops in the area.

The BJP roadshow was led by Dilip Ghosh and Suvendu Adhikari.

“BJP is absolutely ready to give a befitting reply to TMC in West Bengal.

We are ready to defeat Mamata Banerjee no matter where she contests elections from.

Senior BJP leaders made her enter Nandigram but today we have an opportunity to oust her,” said Ghosh.
