Updated on Jan 19, 2017 04:48 pm IST
Two people were killed and many wounded in clashes that broke out during protests against a power grid project in West Bengal's South 24 Parganas district on Tuesday, bringing back memories of the tumultuous days of anti-land acquisition agitations in Singur and Nandigram. Both victims in Bhangar died of bullet injuries, but villagers said police did not fire at them and alleged the involvement of supporters of the ruling Trinamool Congress, which blamed people “against development” for the violence.
