Rupa Ganguly gets blisters on the neck, BJP claims TMC laced garland with chemicals

Bengal BJP’s ‘Parivartan Yatra’ on Saturday (February 13) witnessed violence in Birbhum’s Ilambajar. The BJP has blamed the TMC-backed miscreants for the development. BJP leader and MP Rupa Ganguly claimed that flowers mixed with chemical were thrown at her during the procession by the TMC miscreants.

According to BJP sources, a man threw flowers from the side of the road in Mangalkot around 10 pm on Saturday when the BJP was taking out the ‘Parivartan Yatra’ procession. Rupa Ganguly alleged that she had blisters in her throat as soon as the flowers were thrown at her.

Rupa Ganguly complained that the flower contained a harmful chemical due to which there was a burning sensation in her throat and later she saw that there were blisters all around her neck.
 

However, the BJP leader did not lodge any complaint with the Mangalkot police station or the state police. The incident on Saturday night, however, was not immediately known. 
 

While attending a public meeting in the village of Hatsimla in Kalna on Sunday (February 14) night, Rupa Ganguly made the allegation that she had blisters in her throat after flowers containing chemicals were thrown at her during BJP’s ‘Parivartan Yatra’.

The BJP leader brought allegations against the Trinamool Congress in this incident and said that nothing is going to be stopped by the Trinamool. They are attacking us in all the ways possible.
 

Rupa Ganguly complained from the meeting in Kalna on Sunday, “There was something mixed in the flower which was thrown to me during the Parivartan Yatra. Maybe a chemical. I don't know exactly what it is. Since I had my face down, the flower stuck in my throat without falling on my face. There is a blister in my neck.”
