Trinamool Congress MP Abhishek Banerjee filed a complaint with the Election Commission regarding a demolition incident
Describing Thursday morning’s anti-encroachment drive, he said, “In the early hours of 12th November, 2026, government authorities arrived at the aforesaid premises and proceeded to demolish the security gate installed by the Police, in front of my client’s (Abhishek Banerjee) residence.
The said action, particularly when viewed in the context of the preceding attack and repeated surveillance, has aggravated the apprehension concerning the safety and security of my client and the protection of documents connected with the proceedings pending before the Hon’ble Commission. Civic officials said the structure was obstructing pedestrians and causing inconvenience to people using the footpath. KOLKATA: Trinamool Congress (TMC) MP and national general secretary Abhishek Banerjee has approached the Election Commission after a civic body bulldozer removed a makeshift structure outside his residence in Kolkata on Thursday, alleging intimidation and a possible attempt to interfere with the ongoing party symbol dispute case.
Reacting to the action, Banerjee said in a post on X, “No number of bulldozers can silence my voice or break my resolve. I will continue my fight against the Bangla Birodhis. I will neither retreat nor budge an inch until my last breath.”
