INSUBCONTINENT EXCLUSIVE:
Kolkata: Obviously differing her explosive claim on Wednesday evening of being assaulted and injured by a group of men in a conspiracy in
the absence of the authorities in Nandigram, the hot seat of the West Bengal Assembly surveys, chief minister Mamata Banerjee on Thursday
moved the blame of leaving her hurt on her own moving cars and truck, struck by the pressure of the crowd, as she stuck out of its open
door on the front and was welcoming people in her trademark survey campaign style.There was, however, no referral to any nasty play or any
ill-motive in the latest version of the Trinamul Congress supremo, who underwent a plaster on her left leg for ankle fracture and feet
injury and a series of medical tests because she was confessed at the Woodburn Ward of SSKM Health Center here on Wednesday night
Resting on the bed, Ms Banerjee stated in a video message: It holds true I suffered heavy injuries yesterday
My hands and legs, consisting of ligament, were injured
I also felt extreme pain in my chest and head after suffering such a huge injury
Basing on the bonnet of my cars and truck, I was doing namaskar (to the crowd)
Naturally, heavy pressure fell on it then all of a sudden
My legs got squashed in the cars and truck
I took the medications that were with me
We started for Kolkata instantly
Since then, I have been under the treatment of the physicians
Her fresh story came after numerous local residents, who witnessed the mishap at Birulia in Ranichak of Nandigram on Wednesday evening, had
actually pierced her allegations
They, however, claimed that the open front door on the left side of the white SUV, in which the CM was travelling in a long convoy through a
crowded narrow road, was hit by a light post
Videos of the minute, which went viral later, did not support Ms Banerjee's initial version, while the BJP discovered gaps in her claim and
required a probe into the security breach by the CBI
Even more, the state authorities, in its report to the Election Commission, concluded that the event was an accident, not an attack
Soon after the occurrence, the CM had actually alleged: Standing next to my cars and truck, I was doing namaskar
Unexpectedly four-five guys obstructed my cars and truck
They pushed and pressed me, leaving me hurt
It was a conspiracy certainly
The attack was deliberate
No authorities was present there
Even the SP was not there
Sharing her strategies in the video, Ms Banerjee, whose party delayed the release of its manifesto that was earlier arranged for Thursday,
promised to get better in her poll project
I attract all, including our party workers, to remain calm and show restraint
Do not do anything which troubles individuals
I intend to return to my field within 2 to 3 days
Problems in my legs will continue, I will handle
I will not let my meetings go to waste
I may need to travel in a wheelchair with your cooperation for a couple of days, she included
Acting on local TMC leader Abu Sufiyan's grievance, the East Midnapore cops, on the other hand, started a case under IPC Sections 341
(wrongful restraint) and 323 (voluntarily triggering hurt) versus unidentified persons after district magistrate Bibhu Goyel and
superintendent of police Praween Prakash inspected the incident area on Thursday morning.
