Banerjee’s Convoy Attacked

HalisaharStones and mud hit Mamata Banerjee’s car with the windows shut.

She calls it a near-fatal attack; police made no arrests as protesters surrounded her convoy.

India’s Bengal state runs welfare and policing through local party machines, so losing a district costs more than a seat.

Banerjee alleges police let it happen; the state’s BJP unit denies involvement.
