Union minister V Muraleedharan has alleged that his convoy was attacked by goons of Bengal's ruling Trinamool Congress during his visit to the state. The minister posted a video on Twitter. His tweet coincided with the visit of a four-member Central fact-finding team. The team, led by an additional secretary, was sent to the state by the Union Home Ministry to look into reasons for the post-poll violence that broke out since the counting of votes on May 2. The video shows the convoy stopped by men armed with sticks & rods. The windscreen at the back of the vehicle was broken. BJP chief JP Nadda, who was also in the state on a two-day visit to look into the violence, has claimed that 14 BJP workers have been killed & nearly one lakh people have fled their homes. "I appeal to all political parties to maintain peace. Bengal does not like violence. Please take proper care that there is no violence," Mamata Banerjee said.
