Mamata Banerjee suffers minor head injury after her car meets with accident

West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee suffered a minor head injury while returning from a meeting in Purba Bardhman district on Wednesday.

She sustained the injury after her convoy car abruptly halted due to poor visibility on the highway.

Banerjee had gone to the district headquarters Bardhaman town for an administrative meeting.

She was scheduled to return by helicopter, which did not fly due to drizzle and poor visibility owing to foggy conditions.

The Trinamool Congress chairperson suffered minor injuries on her head and was being brought back to Kolkata, official sources told UNI.

Mamata Banerjee's TMC to fight Lok Sabha polls in Bengal alone

In a jolt to INDIA, the alliance formed by more than 20 opposition parties, West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on Wednesday said her Trinamool Congress (TMC) will fight out the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) alone in the upcoming General Elections.

Speaking to the reporters, Mamata, who was visibly angry with Congress, said, "I had no talk with anyone. My proposal for seat-sharing was turned down by them on the first day. We have already decided to go solo in the elections in Bengal. We will decide about a national approach after the elections."

Mamata claims Congress MP Rahul Gandhi, who is presently undertaking Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra, did not inform her about the rally which is set to pass through the state.
