West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on Wednesday expressed strong opposition to the setting up of an ‘anti-corruption cell’ at the Raj Bhavan, accusing Governor C.V. Ananda Bose of interfering in the functioning of the State’s administration.
“I have heard that the Governor is setting up an anti-corruption cell. This is not the job of the Raj Bhavan. We respect the Governor. He is setting up cells on his own. He is unnecessarily interfering with the State’s rights,” Ms. Banerjee said at the State Secretariat.
The CM alleged that the Governor was “wearing a mask and working under the instructions of the BJP”.
