Mamata 'suffers injury' to her leg, says she was attacked in Nandigram

West Bengal chief minister Mamata Banerjee sustained injuries in her leg after she was allegedly ‘pushed’ by some person at Nandigram in East Midnapore hours after she filed her nomination from the assembly constituency on Wednesday.

“I was deliberately pushed by 4-5 persons,” Banerjee, who had to be carried by her security guard as she could not walk, said.

"There were no police at the spot. Jan bujhke kiya (They did it deliberately). I am having chest pain," Banerjee said while sitting in a car.

Banerjee said she has suffered an injury in her leg after few people pushed her as when she was near her car

She was planning to stay another day in her constituency, and is now returning to Kolkata.

The TMC has alleged that Banerjee was attacked although it is still not clear who is behind the attack.
