New Delhi, Jan 5 (IBNS): Police detained several Trinamool Congress MPs protesting arrests of their lawmakers in the Rose Valley money laundering scam when they forcibly tried to enter the Prime Ministers' Office (PMO) on Thursday, reports said.

TMC MPs are staging demonstrations at both the state and national level following the arrest of MP Tapas Pal and Sudip Bandyopadhyay by the CBI recently.

Meanwhile, following alleged attacks at their residences, West Bengal BJP leaders met with Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh to appraise him of the present situation.

The BJP headquarters in Kolkata was allegedly attacked by the supporters of the ruling party in Bengal, hours after Bandopadhyay's arrest.

Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee and several others from both the ruling and opposition parties have termed it a 'vendetta politics' and have slammed the Prime Minister for misusing the CBI.
