In a new twist to the Governor versus Chief Minister fight in Bengal, Mamata Banerjee raised corruption charges for the first time. Governor Jagdeep Dhankhar is a "corrupt man", said the Chief Minister, alleging that he had been charged in the 1996 Jain hawala case involving a dairy that named politicians who had received kickbacks. "He is a corrupt man. He was named in the chargesheet in the 1996 Hawala Jain case. Why has the central government allowed a governor like this to continue," Mamata Banerjee told reporters this afternoon. She also accused the Governor of visiting North Bengal as a political stunt as he only met MLAs and MPs of the BJP.
