Trinamool MP claims seventh assassination attempt after residence attacked

A Trinamool Congress member of Parliament alleged that his residence was attacked on the occasion of his birthday, claiming it represents the seventh assassination attempt against him in the past six months. The MP attributed the attack to what he described as 'BJP hooligans.' The incident occurred at his residence, though details regarding the nature and extent of the attack remain unclear. The allegation adds to growing tensions between the Trinamool Congress and the BJP in West Bengal, where political violence has been a recurring concern. The MP's claim about multiple attempts on his life underscores the volatile political atmosphere in the state, with both major parties frequently accusing each other of orchestrating attacks on their members.
