A Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) worker was allegedly beaten to death in West Bengal’s Nadia district on Thursday night, sparking a political row between the BJP and the Trinamool Congress.

The incident occurred in Nabadwip, where 40-year-old Sanjay Bhowmik was assaulted and later succumbed to his injuries at a hospital. His family alleged that one of the accused is Tarak Das, a former driver of Nabadwip Trinamool MLA Pundarikaksha Saha. They claimed Mr. Bhowmik was attacked when he tried to intervene in a local fight.
