Three men, with their faces covered, came in a motorcycle to her house in Konnanagar Jorapukur Ghat at 9 pm and started hurling bombs. They barged into the house, smashed a windowpane, damaged furniture, and abused and assaulted her, Bhattacharya said in her police complaint. The BJP leader said in her complaint that it was the handiwork of “anti-socials harboured by the TMC”. 

She has been admitted to Uttarpara State General Hospital where her condition has been described as stable, hospital sources said.
