Speaking against the BJP for tensions in Tripura, West Bengal CM Mamata Banerjee on Monday, alleged that Union Home Minister Amit Shah was behind the alleged attack on TMC workers in Tripura. She stated, "Such attacks would not have been possible without the Union home minister's active support. He is behind these attacks which were carried out in front of Tripura Police as it remained mute spectators. The Tripura chief minister doesn't have the audacity to order such attacks." 

Elaborating on the attack, she said, "BJP is a monstrous party. From Assam to UP they didn't let us enter. Abhishek (Banerjee) was given a bulletproof car later or else he would have been badly hurt. Goons were being made to sit in the same flight on which Abhishek (Banerjee) was travelling. We will win Tripura." Banerjee had earlier visited Tripura on August 2, when the convoy was also allegedly attacked by BJP workers.
