Asansol Stampede

Calcutta High Court on Monday gave conditional bail to Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader and former Asansol mayor Jitendra Tiwari on a personal bond of Rs 50,000.

BJP national vice-president Dilip Ghosh on Thursday said organisers of the event where the stampede took place cannot escape responsibility for the tragedy.

BJP leader and Member of Parliament Saumitra Khan today blamed the ruling Trinamool Congress for the stampede at a blanket distribution event in Asansol, in which three people were killed and five others injured.

The stampede at Bengal's Asansol, which left three people dead, has sparked a heated exchange between senior Trinamool Congress leader Abhishek Banerjee and the Leader of Opposition Suvendu Adhikari.

Three persons -- one of them a child -- died during a stampede at a programme to distribute blankets in Bengal's Asansol today.
