West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on Monday said that central agencies are harassing businessmen across the country. She advised businesmen not to cower in fear but approach the courts.
“People may bother you. It is not only you, all businesses are being harassed by agencies. Even my family is being harassed though I have not taken a single paisa or ever accepted even a cup of tea from anyone in my life. This is political vendetta. If anything happens, you (businessmen) should approach lawyers and the courts,” Ms. Banerjee said. The Chief Minister was addressing STATECON, 2023, a real estate convention in the city.
