New Delhi: The Kolkata Police on Tuesday (May 4, 2021) broke down the stage set for JP Nadda's program near State BJP headquarters, sources told Zee Media.
 
BJP's national president was scheduled to stage a sit-in protest along with state chief Dilip Ghosh at 6, Muralidhar Sen Lane, which is State BJP headquarters. It was slated for 9:30 AM on Wednesday to demand justice for the alleged killings of BJP workers during the violence post-poll results.
 
However, the sources told Zee Media that the 'dharna' will now take place at the Hastings Office.
 
Earlier on May 4, Nadda met families of the BJP workers who were affected by the violence in West Bengal and said that in independent India, 'this much intolerance is unprecedented till date'.
 

"I had heard of the immense atrocities committed during the partition, but I have never seen such post-poll violence that is occurring in West Bengal after the declaration of election results," the BJP chief was quoted as saying by PTI news agency.

"We are committed to democratically fight this ideological battle and the activities of the TMC, which is full of intolerance," he added.
