TMC Vs Governor Over Flogging/Lynching Cases In West Bengal

In sharp criticism of the Mamata Banerjee-led Bengal government over incidents of mob justice in the state, Governor CV Ananda Bose said an "MB cocktail" is marring the law and order situation in the state. The Governor had planned to visit the woman today, who was publicly flogged in Uttar Dinajpur district's Chopra over an alleged extramarital affair. But he put off the plan after state police told him that the woman wants to be left alone for now. But Trinamool has hit back at the Governor, accusing him of using cheap language. The Trinamool says that Raj Bhavan has simply sat on a bill that was passed by the state assembly way back in 2019 to deal with such cases, blunting the Governor's attack.
