Coming close on the heels of the Trinamool Congress attack on the state party headquarters of the Bharatiya Janata Party in Kolkata on Tuesday, West Bengal BJP general secretary Krishna Bhattacharya’s house was attacked with bombs in Hooghly district on Tuesday night.

Three men, with their faces covered, came on a motorcycle to her house in Konnanagar Jorapukur Ghat at 9 pm and started hurling bombs.

They barged into the house, smashed a windowpane, damaged furniture, and abused and assaulted her, Bhattacharya said in her police complaint.

The BJP leader said in her complaint that it was the handiwork of “anti-socials harboured by the TMC”.

She has been admitted to UttarparaStateGeneralHospital where her condition has been described as stable, hospital sources said.

The police said they rushed to her house after getting the information, adding that investigation was on.

District TMC leader Tapan Dasgupta said no party supporter was involved in the incident.

Several BJP workers were injured on Tuesday when activists of the students wing of Trinamool Congress had attacked the state party headquarters here with stones to protest the arrest of the TMC MP Sudip Bandyopadhyay in the Rose Valley chit fund scam case.
