The West Bengal Police on Wednesday afternoon made “preventive arrest” of BJP’s state president Sukanta Majumdar in Krishnanagar area in Nadia district when he was moving towards violence-hit Beldanga in adjoining Murshidabad to take stock of the situation there, a senior officer said.


“Majumdar’s preventive arrest was made under Section 170 of BNSS. He was heading towards a place where prohibitory orders were in place,” a senior officer of Krishnanagar Police District said.


“I was trying to go to Beldanga to review the situation there. Our party workers have put up road blockades in other areas in protest against the police preventing us from going to Beldanga,” Majumdar said.
