Party workers led by BJP state president Sukanta Majumdar organised the protest outside the Barrackpore Police Commissionerate over the alleged deterioration of the law-and-order situation in the area.

The police used water cannons and resorted to lathi charges to disperse BJP workers after they broke barricades and pelted stones at the police during their agitation. The BJP alleged that several workers, including women, were injured in the baton charge by the police.
