Digital Desk: West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee today
said that there will be a cabinet overhaul in the state on Wednesday, involving
four to five new faces. Banerjee was hurt by recent raids on her former
minister and close associate Partha Chatterjee.
"Sadhan Pande and Subrata Mukherjee were lost as ministers.
All their task must be completed because Partha is in prison. Not something I
could handle by myself, "She remarked.
According to Ms. Banerjee, they do not intend to completely
replace the current cabinet. She asserted that the number of districts in the
state has increased from 23 to 30, and that many of them routinely write to
her.
"There used to be 23 districts in Bengal, but there are
currently 30. Sunderban, Ichhemati, Ranaghat, Bishnupur, Jangipur, Behrampur,
and one more district will be named in Basirhat are among the seven new
districts. Many of them write frequently, "She spoke.
Days after his assistant Arpita Mukherjee's properties in
Kolkata were raided and tonnes of cash and kg of gold were taken, he insisted
the money did not belong to him. He claimed there was a plot to frame him.
After the investigation agency raided a number of houses
held by Mr. Chaterjee's 30-year-old aide, mounds of cash were discovered. This
led to harsh criticism of the Mamata Banerjee administration.
