Singh said that he was going for a blood donation camp in the area when he saw a few TMC workers attempting to capture a local BJP office.
"I was attacked and my car was vandalised. People were protesting peacefully. Police Commissioner Manoj Verma abused me. My residence is also being attacked," said Singh.
