Mamata Banerjee On Partha Chatterjee: West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee has reacted for the first time to the arrest of Minister Partha Chatterjee. She said that I do not support corruption or any wrongdoing. If anyone is found guilty, he should be punished, but I condemn the malicious campaign being run against me.

 

CM said that the truth of the case should come out but within a time limit. Trinamool Congress (TMC) President Mamata Banerjee accused the BJP of misusing central agencies. "If the BJP thinks it can break my party by using central agencies, then it is wrong," he said.

 

The Enforcement Directorate (ED) on Saturday arrested West Bengal Industries Minister Partha Chatterjee in connection with its probe into an alleged job scam in the school. The agency has also arrested Chatterjee's close aide Arpita Mukherjee, whose cash worth Rs 21 crore has been seized from one of the hideouts.

 

Chatterjee, who was the state's education minister from 2014 to 2021, was also questioned by the CBI in April and May this year in connection with the scam.
