Trinamool Congress leaders have strongly condemned the attack on Abhishek Banerjee in Sonarpur, calling it a planned assault and a serious breakdown of law and order. The party alleged that BJP supporters were behind the confrontation and questioned the absence of adequate police protection despite the visit being announced in advance. TMC leaders cited videos showing objects allegedly being thrown at Banerjee and claimed the incident has sparked outrage across the country, intensifying the political battle in West Bengal.
