Another BJP leader is in the eye of a storm for his remark on Cooch Behar violence on April 10.

BJP's Rahul Sinha allegedly said on Monday that not four, but eight people should have been shot by the central forces in Cooch Behar's Sitalkuchi.

Sinha said the central forces responded appropriately in Sitalkuchi during the phase 4 polling.

He also allegedly said the central forces will respond again in a similar manner if need arises.

This follows West Bengal BJP chief Dilip Ghosh’s 'more Sitalkuchis' remark.
