Calcutta High Court restrains Mamata Banerjee and others from defamatory statements against Governor Ananda Bose until August 14.
The Calcutta High Court on July 16 restrained West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee and three others from making any defamatory or incorrect statement against Governor CV Ananda Bose in an interim order till August 14.
Mr. Bose had moved a defamation suit against Ms. Banerjee, two newly-elected TMC MLAs Sayantika Banerjee and Reyat Hossain Sarkar and party leader Kunal Ghosh.
He also prayed for an interim order restraining them from making any further comment in connection with alleged incidents at Raj Bhavan.
Speaking on an imbroglio over oath-taking of the two new MLAs, Ms. Banerjee had made certain comments, over which the governor moved the defamation suit before the high court.

Former CM B.S. Yediyurappa had challenged the first information report registered on March 14, 2024, on the alleged incident that occurred on February 2, 2024, the chargesheet filed by the Criminal Investigation Department (CID), and the February 28, 2025, order of taking cognisance of offences afresh by the trial court.
