Howrah, Aug. 6 -- BJP leaders and workers on Wednesday held a 'slipper protest' in Howrah, West Bengal, to register their anger over the alleged attack on the convoy of Leader of the Opposition Suvendu Adhikari in Cooch Behar.

The protesters, carrying slippers in hand, marched to the local police station, accusing the Bengal Police of inaction and bias under the Mamata Banerjee-led government.

BJP leader Pramod Singh, speaking at the protest, said, "Bengal police is Mamata Banerjee's 'hawai chappal'. They kept standing there silently while the Rohingyas and Bangladeshi Muslims kept on creating a ruckus. That is why we are taking slippers with us to the police station, because we want to show them these slippers as a mirror".
