"The state should hand over the investigation to the NIA because we feel that some kind of Jehadi activity was going on there. The CID is neither equipped nor will it be allowed by the TMC government to investigate the matter freely, as the blast took place inside the TMC office," Ghosh told PTI.
The state BJP is also sending a party delegation to visit the area tomorrow.
"During Khagragarh blast in Burdwan also we had said that jehadis were making bombs and it was proven later in an NIA investigation," Ghosh said.
On October 2, 2014, a blast had occurred in a house at Khagragarh in Burdwan town which claimed two lives. The NIA had later found that the two were Jamiat-ul-Mujahideen operatives from Bangladesh.
