  • Leader of the Opposition in the West Bengal Assembly Suvendu Adhikari, along with the alleged victims of the post-poll violence in West Bengal, was stopped by police from entering the premises of the Raj Bhavan and meeting Governor C V Ananda Bose on Thursday, citing Section 144 of the CrPC.

    The BJP leader said: “The TMC government cannot act in such an authoritarian manner. As the police looks after the premises outside the Raj Bhavan, it stopped us. I will move Calcutta High Court … I waited for more than one hour, but the police did not allow us inside the Raj Bhavan. The Governor gave me an appointment, but the police violated his instructions. I also communicated this to the Governor’s office.”
