Agartala: Trinamool Congress National Spokesperson Kunal Ghosh on Tuesday fell ill all of a sudden while being questioned by a Tripura police at the New Capital Complex police station here in Agartala. He has been shifted to ILS hospital Agartala for treatment.
Kunal Ghosh was asked to appear before the police in connection with a case lodged with the Khowai police station. The Khowai police served notices to six TMC leaders and Ghosh is one of them. He reached Agartala on Monday night to cooperate in the legal proceedings initiated against him. Accordingly, he was asked to appear in the New Capital Complex police station instead of going to Khowai considering the long route. Ghosh did appear before the police at the NCC police station but soon after the police team began to ask him questions, he started to feel unwell.
