First reports stated that bricks were thrown at an NIA team vehicle, breaking its windshield. At 5:30 in the morning, when the event occurred, the neighborhood surrounded the automobile and began to throw stones at it. An officer in the police department voiced concern over the possibility that one of the NIA officers had also been hurt.

Two persons were caught by NIA agents earlier today in connection with the incident, according to PTI; the van they were traveling in was attacked while they were making their way back to Kolkata.

According to reports, the National Investigation Agency (NIA) has also filed a police complaint over this matter. The National Investigation Agency (NIA) team that is stationed in Bhupatinagar with the two inmates has apparently received a large contingent of the central police force.

On December 3, 2022, an explosion in Bhupatinagar damaged a thatched-roofed house and killed three people inside.

Eight leaders of the Trinamool Congress were called in by the National Investigation Agency (NIA) to be questioned about the incident.

Regarding the TMC, the BJP was responsible for an NIA action. The central investigative agency ordered that the eight appear before its officials on March 28 after they had disregarded the previous summons that had directed them to the neighboring NIA office in New Town.

The opposition Bharatiya Janata Party, according to TMC chairman Kunal Ghosh, was in charge of making the choice.

Ghosh said the National Investigation Agency (NIA) has received a list of TMC leaders from the Purba Medinipur area and is planning to arrest them.

A team of Enforcement Directorate officials was ambushed two months before the attack on the National Investigation Agency (NIA) team while they were trying to search the home of Shahjahan Sheikh, a local TMC leader on suspension who was close to Jyoti Priya Mallick, the state food minister who was arrested in connection with the multi-crore ration distribution scam in West Bengal. The ED team was also attacked by the center group's ancillary forces. Three employees needed to be admitted to the hospital by the emergency room.
