Tensions escalated in North 24 Parganas, West Bengal, as violent clashes broke out between supporters of the Trinamool Congress (TMC) and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Sunday night, just before Prime Minister Narendra Modi's scheduled rally. The violence was reportedly sparked by the tearing of political flags and posters related to Modi's visit, with BJP supporters accusing TMC members of vandalism. The situation intensified as both sides gathered near the Jagaddal Police Station, resulting in stone-pelting and physical confrontations that overwhelmed local law enforcement. In a related incident, a bombing at the residence of BJP MLA Pawan Singh, who is contesting from the Bhatpara Assembly constituency in the upcoming 2026 elections, caused panic and injuries to at least three individuals. As the Prime Minister's rally approaches, security forces have heightened their presence in the area to prevent further violence. The political climate remains charged as both parties accuse each other of political vendetta, with the region being a focal point in the ongoing election campaign.
