Political Clashes Between TMC and BJP Workers Escalate in West Bengal
Clashes between Trinamool Congress (TMC) and BJP workers have escalated tensions in West Bengal.

Both incidents reflect ongoing political rivalry, with claims and counterclaims from each party and police involvement to restore order.
