Amit Malviya tweeted, “BJP’s rath for the Babasaheb Bhimrao Ambedkar Samman Yatra, parked in Purulia, vandalised. Driver suffered injuries. BJP national president J P Nadda would be flagging off the yatra anytime now from Kotulpur. TMC won’t be able to do much to stop it. What is Pishi so scared of?”

After the incident, JP Nadda said, “The BJP had decided it will take out two Ambedkar yatras, one from Kakdwip and another from Kotulpur. The yatra that was scheduled to start from Kakdwip was vandalised by TMC goons, they tried to stop it. BJP condemns the act.”

“BJP knows that TMC realises they are facing defeat in the upcoming polls and they are doing this in a state of panic. I condemn this,” he added.
