TMC leaders seen returning 'cut money' to people in open field in Bengal
TMC leaders and workers, to avoid public anger and possible legal action, reportedly returned money they had collected over time as "cut money" or through extortion in Mathabhanga in West Bengal's Cooch Behar. The distribution took place at a field, where the villagers were called for a special gathering. "This was...true state of governance...under Mamata Banerjee," BJP's Amit Malviya said.
