India Today
West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee has hit back at the Centre over bureaucrat Alapan Bandopadhyay's central deputation. Mamata Banerjee said the central government was behaving like 'Hitler' and 'Stalin'.
West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on Monday upped her ante against the central government saying it was "behaving like Adolf Hitler and Stalin", the two former leaders from Germany and USSR (Russia) respectively, known for their dictatorial regime. Mamata Banerjee made these remarks at a press conference in Kolkata after granting the retirement request of Alapan Bandopadhyay, the West Benghal chief secretary who became a flash point for fresh tussle between the Centre and the Trinamool Congress government in the state. West Bengal's top bureaucrat, Bandopadhyay was subsequently appointed special advisor to Mamata Banerjee for a tenure of three years. Hari Krishna Dwivedi, an IAS officer of the 1988-batch, was appointed as the West Bengal chief secretary.More Related News
