A scuffle broke out at the Kolkata airport ahead of Trinamool Congress general secretary Abhishek Banerjee's arrival from Delhi.
TMC supporters alleged that BJP supporters came with eggs to hurl at Banerjee, while a TMC supporter claimed a BJP worker arrived with arms to murder the Lok Sabha MP.
Union Minister Sukanta Majumdar appealed for peace and faith in the law, as Abhishek Banerjee met Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla to argue against 20 TMC MPs merging with the NCPI in Tripura.
Banerjee cited the 10th Schedule of the Constitution, stating that the merger was invalid due to a lack of two-thirds party support.
