‘Mamata plotted Rajdhani hijack’
On the CPI(M)'s contention that Trinamool leader andUnion Minister of State Sisir Adhikari had prior knowledge ofthe attack on the Delhi-bound Rajdhani Express on October 27in West Midnapore district, Kishenji claimed that even he wasnot aware of it.
"I don't know who had prior information about theRajdhani Express blockade. Even I didn't have any informationabout it. The tribals blocked the train during a bandh calledby them. This is normal," he said.
"When all parties have the democratic right to protestand call bandhs, why not the tribals?" he asked.
