KOLKATA: An angry mob protest forced Coochbehar MP Jagadish Chandra Barma Basunia to leave his residence at Sitai under his parliamentary constituency in West Bengal with his MLA-wife Sangita Roy Basunia early Tuesday shortly after their return to the address in the northern district following a gap of three months.
Disappointed, the locals started gathering outside Mr Basunia’s address for an agitation on Monday evening after learning about his arrival.
They vented their anger by shouting ‘Go Back’ slogans when he and his wife entered their residence around midnight under tight security arrangements.
At around 2 am on Tuesday, Mr Basunia and his wife, escorted by the cops, left the address for another in the same district.
The Coochbehar MP later said, “I went home to collect some documents and know the situation in the area.”
