Kalkata: Unidentified gunmen killed All India Trinamool Congress councillor, Dulal Sarkar, in West Bengal state of India
According to Kashmir Media Service, Indian police said Dulal Sarkar was shot dead by unidentified bike-born assailants at Jhaljhalia Mor in Malda district.
“He was taken to a nearby hospital, where he succumbed to his injuries. A probe has been initiated and we are trying to identify the culprits,” a senior police officer told media men.
Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee expressed shock over the killing of Dulal Sarkar, who was popularly known as Babla. “My close associate and a very popular leader, Babla Sarkar, has been murdered. From the beginning of the Trinamool Congress, he (and his wife Chaitali Sarkar) worked hard for the party, and Babla was also elected a councillor,” she said in a post on X.
