KOLKATA: Bengal CM Mamata Banerjee Sunday supports Anubrata, the captured strongman Birbhum of Trinamool Mandalquestion on what grounds? CBI arrested him and called on his supporters to “go to war” against BJPthrough the central organs is said to be an attempt to “weak” her party.
Mamata staunchly defends the party’s Birbhum district chairwoman, arrested last Thursday in the cattle smuggling case, in stark contrast to her response to the sacked minister Partha Chatterjeewas arrested on charges of defrauding a job in exchange for money in a school education room. Standing in the Behala West council constituency, which Chatterjee has represented nonstop since 2001, CM has not once mentioned him even when she took cudgels for Mandal.
“What did Kesto (Mandal’s nickname) do wrong?” Mamata said. “Every time during the elections, they put him under house arrest while shielding the real thieves and crooks. You see what happened after we stopped their game in Jharkhand?
BJP had to give up Bihar. Where are the ED and CBI when Rs 50 crore to Rs 100 crore are given to subversive governments? The CM also accused CBI of “leaking information” to label Mandal a “bad name” and “assault” in his Bolpur house where he was picked up. Mamata threatened a movement ” jail bharo” if her party colleagues continue to be targeted.
