Howrah Ram Navami clash: Trinamool questions Raj Bhavan’s decision to set up a separate special cell

Kolkata (IANS)| The Trinamool Congress on Saturday questioned West Bengal Governor CV Anand Bose’s decision to set up a special cell for real-time monitoring of the situation in Howrah’s Shibpur-Kajipara area, which witnessed clashes over Ram Navami processions that began on Thursday. The wake continued till Friday afternoon.

On Friday late evening, the Governor along with State Chief Secretary H.K. Dwivedi and state home secretary B.P. After taking a detailed report from Gopalika about the situation in the tense area, a strongly worded statement was issued by the Raj Bhavan announcing the decision to set up this special monitoring cell.

The Governor ordered real-time monitoring of the situation and constituted a special cell for the same, a Raj Bhavan statement said.

The statement also mentioned a confidential discussion between the Governor and Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee to review the situation.

On Saturday, Trinamool Congress state general secretary and party spokesperson in West Bengal Kunal Ghosh said it was not clear whether the decision to set up a special monitoring cell was just a verbal announcement or a formal notification in the matter.

Casting doubt on whether such a cell can be set up by the Raj Bhavan, Ghosh expressed apprehension that if the said cell receives information from independent or private sources, doubts will remain whether the information received was authentic. Or not.

However, BJP’s state spokesperson Samik Bhattacharya has justified the formation of special monitoring cell by Raj Bhavan.

Bhattacharya said, as the constitutional head of the state, it is the duty of the governor to protect the democratic rights of the citizens of the state. Therefore, he is within his bounds to order the opening of the cell, just as he sought a status report from the Chief Secretary of the State and the Home Secretary of the State.
