West Bengal’s first BJP chief minister, Suvendu Adhikari, may soon swap his modest Chinar Park flat for one of Kolkata’s most high-security and long-unused VIP addresses — the sprawling Soujanya complex in Alipore, built exclusively to house chief ministers and top dignitaries, Times of India reported.
Officials said the Public Works Department is actively examining whether the heavily guarded complex can serve as Adhikari’s official residence, with senior Kolkata Police officers, led by Joint Commissioner Rupesh Kumar, visiting the premises on Sunday to review security arrangements. A final decision is yet to be taken.
