Jagdeep Dhankar also claimed that illegal bomb-making factories are running in West Bengal under government's nose and nobody is taking any action. The governor said, "What do we have in West Bengal? Al-Qaeda, spreading its fangs, people being arrested. We have illegal bomb-making factory and bombs are freely flying in every event, being carried in an ambulance. What are these people doing?"

Jagdeep Dhankar also slammed the administrative officers after political murders in the state and said "I could never imagine that there could be such abdication of authority by senior members of IAS and IPS. We have a state security advisor who is a retired DGP, what does he do? Is he is there out to carry out political acts?"
