New Delhi : Following the ED’s raid on the office of Trinamool Congress’s political consultant I-PAC, West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on Friday warned that if she and her government were pressured beyond a certain point. I have pen drives. I have kept quiet out of respect for the chair I hold. Don’t pressure me too much. I will reveal everything.
The whole country will be shocked,” Mamata said, addressing a large crowd protesting the ED raids in Kolkata. Tensions escalated when Mamata Banerjee, accompanied by police and her aides, entered the probe sites and walked out carrying files and pen drives, alleging that the files contained sensitive poll strategies. Responding to criticism over her interference in the ED’s probe, she said she did not commit any wrongdoing by confronting the Enforcement Directorate during its operations.
Mamata alleged that all proceeds from the coal scam ultimately went to Union Home Minister Amit Shah. She further claimed that the funds were routed through BJP MP from Bengal Jagannath Sarkar – whom she called a “dacoit” – and Leader of Opposition in the Bengal Assembly Suvendu Adhikari – whom she called a gaddar and Shah’s new godson.
During this, there was some scuffle, and a few MPs fell. The police took the MPs into custody at 10 am and released them at 12 noon. Mahua said, “See how elected MPs are being treated.” Mamata Banerjee wrote on X: “I strongly condemn the shameful and unacceptable treatment meted out to our Members of Parliament. Dragging elected representatives on the streets for exercising their democratic right to protest outside the Home Minister’s office is not law enforcement – it is arrogance in uniform.
