KOLKATA: Hitting out at TMC MP Abhishek Banerjee, West Bengal Governor Jagdeep Dhankhar on Saturday stated it was a “shameful act” to assault a decide who has uncovered a recruitment rip-off.
Speaking to reporters on the Bagdogra airport in Siliguri, Dhankhar stated no one is above the regulation.
“Those who are chest-thumping and saying that they will continue to say this a thousand times will face the power of truth. I have gone through the statement very minutely. This is a shameful attack on an individual judge who has exposed the country’s most severe recruitment scam,” Dhankhar stated, with out naming Banerjee.
He was referring to the TMC chief’s assertion at a rally in Haldia final week the place he had criticised “one per cent of the judiciary” for ordering CBI probe in “every case” within the state.
“I feel ashamed to say that there are one or two people in the judiciary who are in hand-in-gloves and have a tacit understanding and are ordering CBI investigation in every case. This is just 1 per cent of the judiciary,” Banerjee had stated.
Soon after he made the remark, Dhankhar had stated that “the honourable Member of Parliament has crossed the red line”.
To this, Banerjee had stated he has all the time believed in talking reality to energy.
“Yesterday, I said how 1% in Kolkata HC is working in cohorts with Centre in protecting some individuals. PEOPLE ARE WATCHING, they know who is actually ‘CROSSING THE RED LINE’. I rest my case here!” he had tweeted.
The Calcutta High Court has ordered CBI investigations in numerous circumstances within the final one yr, together with post-poll violence and recruitment of academics by the School Service Commission (SSC).
Before leaving for New Delhi after a visit to Darjeeling, Dhankhar stated, “Who were given the jobs? Those who never sat for the examinations as well as those whose names were not there on the list. In this backdrop, giving such a statement at a public rally is not correct.”
