‘Would be delighted to call on Mamata Banerjee on Bhai Dooj’: Bengal guv Dhankhar

  • Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee has invited him to the Kali Puja at her residence and also on Bhai Dooj, known as Bhai Phonta in Bengali.
  • “Raj Bhavan may have been informed. I am not aware of it so far. I and my wife would be delighted to call on the honorable chief minister, subject to her absolute convenience,” Dhankhar said.
     
  • “The governor is not acting as a governor. He is constantly insulting an elected government, and therefore, the people of the state. Since he is coming to inaugurate the puja of Taruchaya Club, I have resigned as its chief patron,” Mukhopadhyay said on Friday. 
     
  • Incidentally, Banerjee had called on age governor on Rakshabandhan on August 15 and had tied a rakhi on Dhankhar’s hand.
  • Dhankhar, who was sworn in on July 30 as the West Bengal governor, has had several run-ins with the state government and the ruling Trinamool Congress over the past month.
