Authorities ruled out the possibility of explosives in the bags, but Congress firm on crude bomb stance.
In a shocking incident, three suspicious bags were found underneath a stage where Bengal Congress President, Adhir Chowdhury is to address a public meeting on Friday.
Several security staff who were undertaking safety checks at Murshidabad subdivision suddenly stumbled upon three suspicious bags allegedly placed underneath the stage.
Bengal Pradesh Congress President, Adhir Chowdhury claims it was a plot by the ruling party to kill him. "This is clear that the ruling- Trinamool Congress had plotted to kill me. They placed bombs underneath the stage and their motive is clear," said Chowdhury.
Immediately, the local police was informed and they ruled out the possibility of the presence of any kind of explosives in those bags.
However, Congress maintains that the bags contain crude bombs and other explosives and that the police is trying to cover up this incident.
Meanwhile, the Congress party has moved Election Commission of India (ECI) in connection with this matter and even forwarded pictures of those bags, demanding immediate action.
