Twelve days after being elected to the West Bengal Legislative Assembly, Trinamool Congress MLA Babul Supriyo awaits being sworn in as an MLA, the reason being the differences between the government and Governor Jagdeep Dhankhar.
The Governor in a tweet on Thursday said the Assembly Secretariat and Parliamentary Affairs Minister Partha Chatterjee should provide him with details regarding various House proceedings. “Reports in section of media re: oath @SuPriyoBabul as MLA misleading. Under article 188 of constitution, he has to make & subscribe oath before ‘Governor, or some person appointed in that behalf by him’. Urgent response sought on issues @itspcofficial is awaited from WBLA,” he tweeted. The Twitter account of Parliamentary Affairs Minister Partha Chatterjee is @itspcofficial
