Allegedly, around Monday evening, a Trinamool Congress (TMC) worker named Sheikh Nuruddin, a resident of Matia Gacha village, was riding a bike with his son for party work. At that time, another group of Trinamool Congress (TMC) workers got off their bikes and beat them up in Matiagacha market. On the other hand, the panchayat member of that area Shafiq Shah complained that when they were sitting in the party office in the evening, Mizanur Rahman, the Trinamool leader of that area and his team came and attacked them with bamboo rods. After that the affected Trinamool member was first admitted to a local hospital and then to a private hospital in Chinar Park.
