West Bengal BJP president Sukanta Majumdar said the practice of "tainted" ruling party leaders getting admitted to SSKM citing "uneasiness" must stop.
BJP on Sunday alleged that the Woodburn ward of state-run Seth Sukhlal Karnani Memorial (SSKM) Hospital in Kolkata has become a "resort" for scam-tainted Trinamool Congress (TMC) leaders.
West Bengal BJP president Sukanta Majumdar said the practice of "tainted" ruling party leaders getting admitted to SSKM citing "uneasiness" must stop.
He said they should be treated at any medical establishment which is outside the control of the state government so that they can't influence hospital authorities in reporting their health condition in a way favourable to them.
State minister Partha Chatterjee, who was arrested by Enforcement Directorate (ED) on Saturday in connection with its probe into the alleged school jobs scam, was hospitalised at SSKM after he complained of "uneasiness". He was remanded to two-day ED custody by a city court.
