Buddhadeb against EC's order

Kolkata:

West Bengal Chief Minister Buddhadeb Bhattacharya has reacted sharply to the Election Commission's latest order that no photographs other than that of Mahatma Gandhi and the incumbent president and governor may be put up at government offices.

Soon after the state Chief Electoral Officer announced the Election Commission's order, Bhattacharya said there was no way he would remove photographs of Rabindra Nath Tagore and Netaji Subhash Bose from his office.

He has asked the chief secretary to seek a clarification from the Election Commission on the issue.
