"It is necessary for a candidate to mention cases against him or her in the affidavit. Mukul Roy has suppressed the Narada case completely in his affidavit," TMC spokesperson Kunal Ghosh said.
The Trinamool Congress (TMC) on Wednesday alleged that while filing nomination for the recently held assembly election, BJP vice-president and West Bengal MLA Mukul Roy suppressed in the affidavit that he was an accused in the Narada sting tape case. Another BJP MLA Suvendu Adhikari mentioned the Narada case in his affidavit, but he did not specify the sections under which it was filed, TMC spokesperson Kunal Ghosh claimed. While two TMC senior ministers and an MLA, besides a former party leader, were arrested by the CBI in the Narada sting tape case on Monday, Mr Roy and Mr Adhikari were not, though they too were accused in the case. The CBI also filed the chargesheet against the four in a special court on May 17. The TMC has claimed that the BJP is behind the episode.More Related News
