Posted on 19th Apr 2025 12:45 pm by rohit kumar

Governor CV Anand Bose on Friday met riot victims at the Parlalpur High School relief camp in Baishnabnagar of Malda district of West Bengal. This relief camp has been set up for hundreds of people who became homeless after the communal violence in Murshidabad district. Teams of the National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) and the National Commission for Women (NCW) also reached there with the Governor. Governor Bose's visit took place despite Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee's request to the Governor not to go there for the time being. On this, the Trinamool Congress (TM) alleged that this move of the Governor is politically motivated and this can further deteriorate the atmosphere.

 

Effective steps will be taken - Governor.

Governor Bose spoke to the women, children, and men present in the camp and listened to their problems. He said, 'I talked to the affected families, and understood their troubles. They told me their problems in detail. Now effective steps will be taken on this.' The Governor reached Malda from Kolkata by train. He said that he would personally assess the situation and would also visit the hospital, affected area, and other relief camps if needed. According to sources, the Governor may visit the riot-affected areas of Murshidabad on Saturday.
