Maniktala MLA’s granddaughter recovering from HMPV
The six-year-old granddaughter of the Trinamul Congress MLA Supti Pandey from Maniktala Assembly constituency in the city had HMPV (human metapneumovirus) infection a couple of weeks ago.
Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) state president and MP Sukanta Majumdar severely criticised national general secretary of the Trinamul Congress and MP Abhishek Banerjee for using the term ‘gadder’ (traitor) against him during Banerjee’s speech at TMCP foundation day anniversary.
Mr Majumdar said Trinamul Congress (TMC) leaders were being called ‘gaddar’ in the country for their involvement in SSC, TET scams, coal and cow-smuggling cases. “It is ridiculous that a leader like Abhishek Banerjee, who had been summoned by central agencies, is now calling me a traitor. My wife and I are both teachers. Except for a two-bedroom house we have nothing else,” he said. He said TMC leader Abhishek has huge properties and often flies abroad for treatment. “the Banerjee family must explain how such huge plots at Harish Chatterjee Street and Harish Mukherjee were purchased in one another’s name. Why 7,000 policemen have to be deployed for convening TMC leader’s meeting,” said Majumdar.
