The conflict between Raj Bhavan and the TMC-led West Bengal government is intensifying
Tensions between Raj Bhavan and the state secretariat are escalating as the TMC-led West Bengal government has yet to respond to Governor C V Ananda Bose‘s directive to remove Kolkata Police personnel from security duty.
There was no response from the Kolkata Police either regarding the instructions from the office of Governor Bose.
On June 14, the office of the Governor demanded immediate replacement of Kolkata Police personnel on duty at Raj Bhavan in the wake of an allegation by the Leader of the Opposition Suvendu Adhikari that the cops were not allowing him and victims of post-poll violence to meet Bose.
As there was no reaction from the state secretariat, Bose on June 17 sent a communique to Nabanna, asking the government to remove Kolkata Police from security duty at Raj Bhavan.
Raj Bhavan sources said that on June 17, an attempt was made by the Governor’s staff to serve a notice at the police outpost on the Governor’s House premises to vacate the rooms occupied by them. However, that notice was not received by the cops present there.
Meanwhile, on the same afternoon, Bose left the city for the site of the Kanchanjunga Express accident at Phansidewa in Darjeeling District.
Even as the Raj Bhavan staff awaits further instructions from Bose, the corridors of power are abuzz with apprehensions over the tension between the Governor’s House and state secretariat aggravating in the days to come.

The inequality is most glaring, in the thinking and attitudes in WB. From Intellectuals to ranks idiots, from highly educated to street goons, from decent respectable to arrogant , unless this gap is filled the, religious and financial inequality gaps cannot be filled and that is what the politicians are exploiting.
Keep shouting……nothing will happen. Think other ways. This mad Mumtaz is a thick donkey skin. BJP can only ensure that no industry enters Bengal for next 100 years & let Bengalis go begging to neighbor Bihar & Chattisgarh.
