Shantinagar, behind Sukantanagar, was witness to the biggest incident of unrest last Saturday when polling for the Bidhannagar Assembly constituency was largely peaceful.
The Trinamul Congress (TMC) and BJP supporters got into a scuffle in front of Naobhanga Primary School polling station, that prompted both BJP candidate Sabyasachi Dutta and TMC’s Sujit Bose to reach the spot.
The day after the polls, too, trouble erupted in Duttabad as clashes broke out among supporters of rival parties at Duttabad, on the fringes of Salt Lake, that left five persons injured, police said.
Ballot blues
At around 10am, trouble started brewing at the polling station in Shantinagar when some women voters who were waiting in the school’s field alleged that that a group of unknown men had pelted stones at them.
