The vehicle, in which the Leader of Opposition in West Bengal Assembly was travelling along with three other BJP legislators, was stopped by a posse of policemen at Rampur village en route to Sandeshkhali.
The party has nothing to say on this issue. We think the person around whom this controversy is revolving is best suited to react to this, TMC's West Bengal general secretary and spokesperson Kunal Ghosh said.
It is disheartening to see that ED officials have an "unparalleled talent" for disseminating "fake stories" so as to malign him, Banerjee said.
The move comes at a time when several turncoat politicians, who switched from the TMC to BJP ahead of West Bengal Assembly polls, have expressed regret over their decision to quit the Mamata Banerjee-led party.
After her 72-hour deadline and an over three-hour long meeting in Kolkata with Trinamool Congress MPs and leaders, West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on Tuesday finally walked out of the Congress-led United Progressive Alliance Government.
