Municipal staff removed a temporary shed and an iron gate from the footpath outside TMC general secretary Abhishek Banerjee's house in Kalighat on Thursday.
Officials said the structures obstructed pedestrians; the TMC says the shed was built by the state's security directorate for his guards.
Banerjee said "no number of bulldozers" would silence him. The drive came days after clashes outside his house.
