The BJP’s Delhi unit on Monday staged a protest against the alleged killing of two party workers in West Bengal and the deteriorating law and order situation in the state.

Targeting West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee over the issues, the unit’s members took out a protest march this morning from Trimurti road but were stopped by police before they could reach the state’s guesthouse at Chanakyapuri, where the CM was staying.

Banerjee, who is also the TMC’s chief, was in Delhi to attend the Niti Aayog Governing Council meet. She left for Kolkata in the afternoon.

The march was led by BJP Delhi president Manoj Tiwari and MPs Rupa Ganguly and Ramesh Bidhuri. Other party leaders from the national capital and Bengal also participated in the protest.

“There is no law and order in the state (Bengal). People are scared to come out of their houses. The Trinamool Congress (TMC) has recently murdered two of our workers and the police is trying to cover it up, saying they committed suicide. ”Mamata Banerjee cannot control her own state, but she is in Delhi to show solidarity to Delhi chief minister (Arvind Kejriwal) who is also not being able to control his state,” Ganguly, a BJP MP from West Bengal, told PTI.

Protest marches would be taken out in West Bengal and other parts of the country. The people would rise against the atrocities committed by the state government, she said.
