Stampede at Pushpa 2 premiere kills woman, leaves her 2 kids critical
Pundibari finds itself at the center of heated tensions once again, this time revolving around the Vikas Bharat Rath Yatra. On Wednesday, BJP workers attempted to retrieve the seized Rath from Pundibari police station, leading to a confrontation with law enforcement. The situation escalated as BJP leaders and workers protested in front of the police station and later engaged in altercations with Trinamool supporters.
Despite the heavy police presence, a dispute emerged between BJP and Trinamool workers during a protest rally. The tension reached a boiling point, prompting BJP leaders, including District President Sukumar Rai and MLA Sushil Burman, to block Pundibari National Highway-17 in protest. The recent clash follows Tuesday's tensions, which led to the temporary custody of the Vikas Bharat Rath by the administration.
