The indefinite sit-in demonstration outside Raj Bhavan by TMC activists led by senior leader Abhishek Banerjee entered the third day with protesters asserting their stir will continue till Governor C.V. Ananda Bose meets them at the protest site even as a team of agitators will call on him in Darjeeling on Saturday.
Raj Bhavan sources said Mr. Bose has agreed to meet the delegation in Darjeeling's Gubernatorial Mansion at 5.30 p.m. after receiving an email request from TMC leader Derek O'Brien.
The Governor's decision to meet the delegation comes in the wake of the TMC sit-in led by Mr. Banerjee demanding the release of West Bengal's MGNREGA dues by the Centre and demanding an audience with Mr. Bose.
