The Home Ministry is continuously monitoring the situation in West Bengal and a report has been sought from concerned agencies on the matter, official sources said on Wednesday.
TMC MPs, leaders and workers held protests in Kolkata, Bhubaneswar and in the national capital against Tuesday’s arrest of Bandyopadhyay as alleged workers of West Bengal’s ruling party attacked BJP offices, hurling bombs and setting them on fire.

In another incident at Chinsurah in Hooghly district, alleged TMC workers set on fire a BJP office.
