**Headline: Suvendu Adhikari’s Convoy Attacked in West Bengal, BJP Blames TMC**

**Kolkata, August 5, 2025 (The Hindu)** – Leader of Opposition in the West Bengal Assembly, Suvendu Adhikari, survived an attack on his convoy in Coochbehar district on Tuesday afternoon. According to Adhikari, the vehicle he was traveling in, a bulletproof car, was targeted by unknown assailants. The incident occurred as Adhikari was en route to attend a BJP protest rally.

Multiple vehicles in the BJP convoy were allegedly pelted with stones at Khagrabari, resulting in shattered windshields and rear windows.

BJP leader and former Union Minister Nisith Pramanik, who was present, accused Trinamool Congress (TMC) Minister Udayan Guha of orchestrating the attack. Pramanik claimed the attack demonstrated the TMC’s feeling of being “threatened.”

“They attacked the bulletproof car in a way that they shattered its windows. That proves that they were out for blood,” said Pramanik.

Udayan Guha has denied any involvement, stating that the local police had adequate measures in place to maintain law and order.

The incident occurred amid heightened political tensions in West Bengal, with the BJP staging protests against the TMC-led government, citing a rise in crimes against women. An image released by PTI showed Adhikari leading a protest in Bankura district on August 1st. An investigation is underway.
