- On Thursday morning, Trinamool Congress national general secretary Abhishek Banerjee alleged that BJP workers attacked a party office on Camac Street in Kolkata, claiming phones were snatched and electronic equipment was destroyed.

- Abhishek stated the office was "ransacked" by individuals armed "with weapons" at 4.30 in the morning, criticizing the Kolkata Police for failing to act despite repeated calls and emails.
- Calling the attack "outrageous and unacceptable," he demanded an investigation into "who planned, organised and directed this violence," and urged the Calcutta High Court to take action.
- Questioning whether the Union Home Minister or PMO will intervene, he demanded Chief Minister Suvendu Adhikari's resignation, while neither the police nor the BJP have responded to the allegations.
