'TMC hell-bent on destroying law and order': PM Modi over NIA attack

• PM Modi launched an all out attack on TMC over attack on NIA officials in East Medinipore's Bhupatinagar  
• Accusses TMC of being 'hell-bent on destroying law and order'
• Says, TMC attacks and threatens the probe agencies when they investigate in Bengal

Prime Minister Narendra Modi  launched an all-out attack on the Mamata Banerjee-led Trinamool Congress over the attack on NIA offcials in East Medinipore's Bhupatinagar.

"TMC wants its corrupt leaders to get free license to commit crimes. So, when central investigations agencies arrive here, they attack and threaten the team. TMC is the govt which is hell-bent on destroying the law and order,” PM said at a rally in Jalpaiguri. 

"The TMC is disregarding the law and the constitution of the country," he added. 

Modi's attack comes a day after a team of NIA officials was attacked by a mob in East Midnapore district when it had gone there to probe a 2022 blast case. According to the agency, a team member suffered a minor injury and the NIA's official vehicle was also damaged as some miscreants in the crowd attacked them.
