Violence erupted in Kolkata during an election rally on January 18.

A BJP worker was allegedly injured when stones were pelted at the rally.

Two-wheelers at the roadside were allegedly vandalized and stones were also pelted at buildings and shops in the area.

The BJP roadshow was led by Dilip Ghosh and Suvendu Adhikari.

โ€œBJP is absolutely ready to give a befitting reply to TMC in West Bengal.

We are ready to defeat Mamata Banerjee no matter where she contests elections from.

Senior BJP leaders made her enter Nandigram but today we have an opportunity to oust her,โ€ said Ghosh.
