MALDA: Trinamool Congress councillor from Ward 22 of English Bazar Municipality, Dulal alias Babla Sarkar was shot dead by unidentified assailants in Mahanadapally on Thursday.
The miscreants came on bikes and opened fire. Multiple rounds were fired at the councillor. After the shootout, Sarkar (60) was rushed to the Malda Medical College and Hospital (MMCH), where he was declared dead.
Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee criticised the role of the Superintendent of Police for withdrawing Sarkar's security despite previous life threats and past instances of shooting attempts on him in 2007. The police have started an extensive hunt for attackers with the help of CCTV footage and have detained two persons.
