Police said one of the bombs exploded while the other was recovered from the spot.
No casualty or injury has been reported.
Sources said bombs were lobbed at the house of Sanjay Biswas, the panchayat-level president of Trinamul in Pachagarh panchayat area under the Mathabhanga-I block. He has accused BJP for the attack.
