Stones were reportedly thrown at his car, damaging parts of it, as he faced an assault while returning. The incident created tension in the Polerhat police station area of South 24-Parganas on the first day of the year, prompting police intervention to restore order.
TMC MLA Saokat Molla blamed Arabul for the incident, accusing him of attempting to hoist the flag for a second time after it had already been done earlier. Reports suggest that Arabul was heading to a location in Bhangar on Wednesday morning to hoist the party flag on the foundation day. However, this triggered a dispute between two factions of TMC, supporters of Arabul and followers of Saokat Molla, the MLA from Canning East and TMC observer for Bhangar. Saokat’s supporters alleged that Arabul’s followers assaulted them, which led to retaliation against Arabul’s car.
