Mamata Banerjee, the Chief Minister of West Bengal, launched a vigorous critique against the central government and the Election Commission in a statement made on Monday in Kolkata. Her dissatisfaction was particularly directed at the decision made at midnight to remove key officials, including the Chief Secretary, Home Secretary, Police Commissioner, and DGP, which she perceives as a move against the interests of Bengal. Banerjee accused the central government of being anti-Bengal and instructed party leaders not to engage in any plots against the state. She emphasized that the Chief Secretary, a Bengali woman, was unjustly dismissed in what she labeled as an attack on women.
