Bengal Governor alerts TMC administration of "Constitution" about ED attack: "Not a banana republic"

Sajhaan's home was one of the fifteen locations in Bengal where the CIA was conducting searches.

Kolkata: Governor of West Bengal CV Anand Bose described the assault on Enforcement Directorate officers by TMC leader Sheikh Sajjan's followers on Friday as "worrying, condemnable, and a terrible incident". He responded angrily, stating that Bengal was not a "banana republic" and that the state's leadership needed to put an end to "barbarism and brutality". He said that "the Constitution of India will take its course" if the Mamata Banerjee administration did not carry out its fundamental obligations.

This situation is horrendous. This is unacceptable and disturbing. A civilized government's responsibility is to keep barbarism and barbarism in democracies at bay. The Indian Constitution will take its course if a government fails to fulfill its fundamental obligations. I retain the right to take all relevant measures under the constitution. This is the beginning of the end for the pre-election violence, which has to cease soon," he said.

With HT, reflect on the previous year and prepare for 2024! Go here to go there.

"Bengal is not a banana republic," he said. In a democracy, the government should put an end to cruelty."

His followers fought officials who raided his home in Bengal's North 24 Parganas district. Their cars were also damaged by the throng.

Authorities were compelled to abandon their wrecked cars and go to safer locations using autorickshaws and two-wheelers.

For medical attention, two cops were brought to the hospital.

TMC politician Shashi Panja, a minister from West Bengal, said that TMC followers were incited by central forces.

"TMC does not condone violence of any kind, but the villagers were claiming that the central forces associated with the investigating agencies were the ones who started it." When discussing cooperative federalism, MoS Nisith Pramanik mentions Bengal Federalism does not exist in India. Federalism implies positive ties between the federal government and the states. The States and the Center should work together. However, based on what we're seeing here, Nisith Pramanik, you need to respond, what Have you enquired about Bengal's MNREGA funding as well? Have you ever wondered why the Center doesn't provide the impoverished in rural areas money for housing? For this, you have never raised your voice," he said.

The West Bengal BJP has requested that an NIA inquiry following the incident be demanded by Union Home Minister Amit Shah.
