But Trinamool does not support physical attacks as an expression of anger. It condemns them. We wish for Khagenbabu\u2019s recovery. Alongside, a question: Have you forgotten the attacks by BJP on Trinamool leaders and workers in Tripura? And the repeated attacks on Mamata-di during the CPM era? Even so, this picture proves that Trinamool is different.
