Kolkata: The ruling Trinamool Congress in West Bengal on Monday sent a legal notice to BJP president Amit Shah for his speech in Kolkata where he had brought graft charges against Mamata Banerjee's newphew and TMC MP Abhishek Banerjee, media reports said. 

Saying the BJP will free the eastern state from scams if it comes to power, Shah in his recent Kolkata rally did not spare Mamata's nephew Abhishek Banerjee, who is a Lok Sabha MP from Diamond Harbour constituency of West Bengal.

The BJP chief said: "After coming to power, Mamata gave birth to Narada, Saradha, Rose Valley scams and also the scams by his nephew."

Reacting to the allegation, TMC had demanded an apology from Shah failing which they had threatened a legal action.
