Eggs hurled at TMC office during MP Mahua Moitra’s visit, she blames ‘BJP goons’

During a visit to a Trinamool Congress (TMC) office in Krishnanagar, West Bengal, MP Mahua Moitra reported that eggs and vegetables were thrown at her by a group she identified as 'BJP goons.' The incident occurred while Moitra was inside the office, and she shared videos on social media showing the attackers displaying BJP flags and claiming the actions were coordinated. The TMC accused the ruling BJP of fostering an environment of violence and intimidation since taking power in May 2026, alleging that the attacks are part of a pattern targeting opposition figures. The party criticized the local administration for allegedly enabling such incidents and claimed that the BJP's promises of women's safety have not translated into protection for non-BJP supporters.
