BJP’s Shubhendu Adhikari breaks open barricades at Election Commission office in Kolkata | Watch

West Bengal LOP and Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader Shubhendu Adhikari broke barricades at the State Election Commission office in Kolkata on Wednesday. Suvendu Adhikari was surrounded by his supporters when he broke through the barricades of the State Election Commission, a day after the Calcutta High Court directed the deployment of central forces in sensitive districts ahead of the panchayat elections in West Bengal.

“This is an attempt to murder democracy, we will oppose it. We will end Mamta Banerjee’s jungle raj in West Bengal. We are fighting for democracy and the people of the state will win. They say that there is no sensitive booth in West Bengal and there is no need of central forces here.
