BJP worker injured in clash between two factions in West Bengal's North 24 Parganas

A Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) worker, Karan Sheth, sustained serious injuries during a violent clash between two factions in West Bengal's North 24 Parganas district on Saturday night, October 31, according to a senior police officer. The incident occurred near Mamata Medical Hall, close to Titagarh police station, following a Bijoya Sammilani gathering organized by the local BJP mandal.

Allegations emerged that members of one faction were attacked by another group shortly after the program concluded, prompting a confrontation that escalated into a physical altercation. Police swiftly intervened, dispersing the groups and restoring order to the area. Sheth, identified as the injured BJP worker, was initially taken to B.N.

Bose Hospital in Barrackpore, but due to his deteriorating condition, he was later transferred to Sagar Dutta Hospital in Kamarhati.
