'Will End Corruption': Congress Seeks Support Against 'Corrupt' TMC In Bengal Panchayat Polls

Congress leader Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury has said that his party will release an ad seeking people's support against the 'corrupt ruling party' in the Panchayat elections.

The political battleground in West Bengal is all set to witness an intense fight on July 8 when the state goes for the much anticipated Panchayat elections. Ruling TMC, and the major opposition parties BJP and Congress are putting their might to win the polls. In the same direction, Congress on Thursday launched an attack on the ruling dispensation in the state and said that it will end all forms of corruption in practice at present, once it wins the rural elections.

West Bengal Congress president Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury said that his party seeks support from people against the 'corrupt activities of the ruling party' in Panchayat elections. He also that Congress will release an ad seeking support from the people for the upcoming rural body polls.

"Congress seeks support from the people against the corrupt activities of the ruling party in Panchayat (elections) in West Bengal. Once we win the Panchayat polls, Congress will end the corrupt practices in the state. We will release an ad today seeking support from the people for the Panchayat elections, Chowdhury told ANI.

On Monday this week, West Bengal Governor CV Ananda Bose was greeted with black flags when he arrived to North Bengal University (NBU) in Siliguri. Trinamool Chhatra Parishad members hoisted flags and shouted slogans, news agency ANI reported. According to reports, the Governor met with NBU's Vice-Chancellor today and talked for almost an hour at the executive meeting. Following the meeting, the Governor spoke to the media, announcing that the State Election Commissioner had been chosen to decide the number of phases for the state's upcoming Panchayat election.

Trinamool Congress (TMC) General Secretary Kumar Ghosh came down heavily on West Bengal Governor CV Ananda Bose, saying that he is acting "like a BJP agent." Speaking with media, Ghosh stated: "If Governor CV Ananda Bose continues to act like a BJP agent, he will have to face black fags and slogans like 'Ananda Bose go back'."

Hitting out at the state government, West Bengal BJP spokesperson Rahul Sinha stated: "Showing black flags to the Governor will hurt the state's image. CM Mamata Banerjee wants a 'sleeping governor'. The Governor isn't afraid of Mamata Banerjee & her party."
