A top Left leader has echoed the Trinamool's criticism of Jagdeep Dhankar, who has been locked in a long-running feud with Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee over claims and counter-claims on post-poll violence in Bengal.
As Bengal Governor Jagdeep Dhankhar holds a series of meetings in Delhi amid clashes with the Mamata Banerjee government, his controversial role and comments have landed the Left on the same side as rival Trinamool Congress. A top Left leader has echoed the Trinamool's criticism of Mr Dhankar, who has been locked in a long-running feud with Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee over claims and counter-claims on post-poll violence in Bengal. Left parties slammed the Governor for allegedly acting like a BJP mouthpiece and condemned his "partisan" role. "He is not a man of the BJP but his function is tantamount to be a man of BJP. This cannot be the role of a governor. He is identifying himself as a man of BJP. This is not right. This cannot be the role of a governor, particularly in West Bengal," Biman Bose, Left Front chairman, said today.More Related News
