West Bengal: Police use tear gas & water cannons against BJP workers in Siliguri

BJP supporters and police clashed on Monday in at least four places in Siliguri, including Tinbatti intersection and Phoolbari Bazar, over a protest march towards Uttarkanya, a Mini-Secretariat building in north Bengal.

The incident occurred when BJP supporters tried to break through barricades and threw stones at police, which used water cannons and tear gas in a bid to disperse them.
