NEW DELHI: A day after the crackdown on protesting BJP workers in West Bengal, the party on Wednesday said the state has become "lawless" and "bankrupt" under Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee and accused her of inflicting "police torture" on its members to suppress their voice.
BJP leader Ravi Shankar Prasad also alleged that Banerjee could be trying to divert attention from the rivalry within her Trinamool Congress (TMC) by using force against BJP members.
