The chaos began before Modi’s arrival at Raibaghini Ground in Purulia town, where supporters had started gathering from 9am. “I heard there was chaos…They started throwing chairs and water bottles, some even at police personnel. But it is your love which helped us hold the rally here,” Modi told the crowd of around 60,000 in Purulia. The fact is the ground where the (BJP) rally was organised has 170 stakeholders but only 17 gave permission. The rally was held using force,” Mamata said in Bankura before heading to the rally in neighbouring Purulia.
