It is TMC’s distraction strategy, says Bengal Governor Jagdeep Dhankar.
West Bengal Governor Jagdeep Dhankar refutes nepotism charge, calls it TMC’s distraction strategy.
Jagdeep Dhankar hits back to the allegations levelled up by TMC leader Mahua Moitra. She alleged people related to the Governor had been appointed as officers on special duty (OSD) in the Raj Bhavan in Kolkata. Calling it “factually wrong”, Dhankar said it’s a “distraction strategy” to divert attention from “alarming law and order situation” in the state.
The list that Moitra shared had names of OSD to governor Abbhudoy Singh Sekhawat, OSD-coordination Akhil Chowdhury, OSD-administration Ruchi Dubey, OSD-protocol Prasant Diksit, OSD-IT Koustav S Valikar and newly appointed OSD Kishan Dhankar
Assertion@MahuaMoitra in tweet & Media that six coterminous appointee OSDs in personal staff are relatives is FACTUALLY WRONG. OSDs are from three states and belong to four different castes. None of them is part of close family. Four of them are not from my caste or state,” he said on Twitter.
“This is unfolding of “distraction strategy” to divert attention from alarming law and order scenario @MamataOfficial. Would continue undeterred and with zeal to serve the people of state and vindicate my oath of office under Article 159 of the Constitution,” Dhankar said in another tweet.
