Chief minister Mamata Banerjee was admitted to hospital with multiple injuries to her left ankle, hip and the region around the collar bone, suffered when a group allegedly slammed the door of an SUV on whose footboard she was standing to greet people after filing her nomination for the Nandigram seat on Wednesday.
Late on Wednesday night, an MRI scan showed a crack in the left foot, and ligament and soft tissue injuries, sources said.
“I was standing on the footboard of the car to greet the crowd when four to five people suddenly slammed the door (of the car). See how my feet have swollen. It’s a conspiracy.. It was deliberate,” Mamata, who was clearly in severe pain, said in Nandigram.
