In Kolkata, on Thursday, authorities arrested six individuals linked to the vandalism of Trinamool Congress (TMC) MP Abhishek Banerjee's office located on Camac Street. The six arrested individuals, mainly from the Howrah area, are identified as Shankar Rao, Avinash Shaw, Sukdev Gupta, Suraj Shaw, Bhombol Mondol, and Rohit Poral.
According to Kunal Agarwal, Additional Commissioner of Police (Crime), police received information around 6:00 a.m. about the incident and promptly arrived at the scene to make the arrests. A few items from the ransacked office were seized during the operation. The BJP has accused the TMC of this act, with former CM Mamata Banerjee recently blaming the saffron camp for "looting" both votes and offices.
TMC MP Banerjee shared CCTV footage showing unidentified individuals engaging in the vandalism. Mamata had appealed to the Supreme Court to investigate the matter, while the BJP's state president, Samik Bhattacharya, contested the allegations.
