Kolkata, May 13 (UNI) BJP president Amit Shah's electioneering for party's Jadavpur Lok Sabha candidate Anupam Hazra was cancelled today at the eleventh hour following the government's denial of permission to Shah's helicopter landing.

“As the Mamata Banerjee Government did not give permission for the 2nd rally which was to be held in Jadavpur, Kolkata, Amit Shah is compelled to hold only 2 rallies. People of Bengal will give a befitting reply to this anarchy of Mamata Didi on 23rd May. Desh Modi Ke Saath," a BJP Twitter account said.

BJP also accused the Election Commission of being a quiet onlooker on the development in Bengal where the opposition leaders have been denied permission for holding meeting for election.

The party alleged that they had already paid rent to the land owner for using his private land but in the final hours the landowner refused to give land owing to pressure from the TMC government.

The local administration also refused to give permission for helicopter landing for Shah, BJP leaders said.
