Amid continuing demonstration by a section of the people demanding return of "cut money" from TMC leaders, the West Bengal police urged the protestors to lodge complaints against the accused instead of going for violent protests.
"We would urge the protesters not to take law into their own hands by taking part in violent protest or blocking roads. They should follow the proper legal procedure and file police complaints. Let the police investigate the matter. If someone has committed anything wrong, the police will act accordingly," said a senior police officer who did not wish to be named.
All police stations have been given directions to register complaints of the people and investigate them, the officer said.
Protest demonstrations rocked various parts of the state Monday over demand for return of "cut money" allegedly taken by elected representatives of the Trinamool Congress from beneficiaries of government schemes.
