TMC Leader Mahua Moitra Alleges BJP Workers Hurled Eggs at Her in Bengal's Nadia District
- On Wednesday, Trinamool Congress MP Mahua Moitra alleged that Bharatiya Janata Party workers threw eggs at her while she attended a restaurant meeting in her Krishnanagar constituency, posting video evidence on social media.
- These incidents follow the Bharatiya Janata Party's victory in the May 4, 2026, West Bengal state assembly elections, which ended the Trinamool Congress's 15-year rule; since then, several party leaders have faced similar egg-throwing protests.
- Moitra, who represents Krishnanagar in the Lok Sabha, alleged that police remained "watching on" during the protest, claiming these were "coordinated" attacks by party workers rather than spontaneous public outbursts.
- Police and Central Reserve Police Force personnel arrived shortly after to disperse the protesters, while the Trinamool Congress alleged the state is "spiralling into unchecked violence" under the current administration.
- Characterizing the attack as "disturbing," the party questioned whether it has become the "new normal" to target individuals, citing similar egg-throwing incidents that previously targeted Abhishek Banerjee and Udayan Guha.
