Kolkata, Jun 23 (IBNS): The West Bengal unit of Bhartiya Janata Party (BJP) on Tuesday lodged a complaint at Jorasanko police station against Trinamool Congress (TMC) Lok Sabha MP Abhishek Banerjee for his threat to 'gouge out the eyes' of anyone who dares to hurt Bengal's interests.

"Those who dare to glare at us, we can gouge their eyes out and throw them on the road. Show us your hands and we can cut them off," said West Bengal chief minister Mamata Banerjee's nephew Abhishek Banerjee in a public meeting at Basirhat in North 24 Parganas district of West Bengal on Monday.

The BJP also requested the police to turn the complaint into FIR and arrest Abhishek Banerjee.

BJP's WB state president Rahul Sinha said that they would lodge another complaint at Basirhat police station.

"We will move to High Court tomorrow against Mamata's nephew's threats," he added.
