Mayor of Asansol Municipal Corporation and Trinamool Congress (TMC) MLA Jitendra Kumar Tiwari on Saturday complained to the police that a caller, claiming himself to be Union Minister Babul Supriyo, has verbally abused and threatened him.
The letter written by Tiwari stated, "A caller claiming himself to be Asansol MP and Union Minister Babul Supriyo abused me in filthy language and threatened me with dire consequences."
