  "summary": "Kolkata Police have registered an FIR against Mamata Banerjee and organisers of the Trinamool Chhatra Parishad (TMCP) foundation day programme. The FIR alleges violations of conditions imposed by the Calcutta High Court for the event held on August 28 on Cathedral Road in Kolkata.\n\nThe Calcutta High Court had permitted the TMCP foundation day programme on condition that one flank of the road be kept open to ensure traffic and public movement, and that the event be held within a specified time limit. However, police allege that these conditions were not followed, with the road flank not being kept open, resulting in traffic disruption, and the programme allegedly continuing beyond the permitted time.\n\nPolice also allege that some supporters pushed aside barricades, leading to clashes with police personnel. The FIR has been registered under various sections of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS) at Hastings Police Station, and the role of all those involved in the alleged violations will be examined during the investigation, according to Live Mint.",
