New Delhi: A viral video of miscreants vandalising the statue of social reformer Ishwar Chandra Vidyasagar during BJP president Amit Shah's roadshow in Kolkata has surfaced online.
While the BJP president accused Trinamool Congress 'goons' of vandalising the statue, West Bengal chief Minister accused BJP of spreading violence in the state.
Meanwhile, the Kolkata police have registered an FIR against BJP president Amit Shah in connection with the violence during his roadshow.
Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee visited Vidyasagar College, where the statue was vandalised on Tuesday.
BJP and TMC supporters on Tuesday fought pitched battles on the streets of Kolkata during a massive roadshow by Amit Shah, who escaped unhurt but was forced to cut short the rally and had to be escorted to safety by police.
