BJP, CPI-M unleashing violence in Bengal : Mamata

Rejecting opposition charges of police excesses, West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on Thursday accused the BJP and the CPI-M of unleashing violence in the state in the name of protests.

On a day when Banerjee, the Trinamool Congress supremo, held talks with Prime Minister Narendra Modi over developmental issues here, back in West Bengal capital Kolkata, a large number of people, including policemen, were injured when a protest march by the Bharatiya Janata Party turned violent.

The BJP took out the march to protest deteriotating law and order in the state and alleged that false cases have been lodged against party workers.
