Doc makes U-turn, says Didi wasn't 'pushed from behind'

Banduopadhyay also said her statement was misinterpreted, which sparked large-scale confusion and speculations.

"She (CM) had a sensation of pushing from behind which led to her fall. Our job is to treat and we have done that. There was a misinterpretation of what I said last evening," said Bandyopadhyay.

While reading out a medical bulletin on Thursday evening Bandyopadhyay said the chief minister reported to the hospital with a history of fall within the vicinity of her home due to "some push from behind".
