Roopa, after receiving complaints of a booth being jammed by TMC workers in Salkia, went to one such booth where she was surrounded by them triggering a war of words between them. Das had alleged she was pushed and obstructed by Roopa. The Election Commission has also taken cognizance of the incident.
