Minister announces state gift on Jagadhatri Puja
Minister Indranil Sen during the press conference at strand road in Chandannagar said chief minister Mamata Banerjee has extended a special gift towards Chandannagar Jagadhatri Puja and carnival.
Hardly 11 hours after his earlier statement made on Thursday night Prof (Dr) Monimoy Bandyopadhyay, director of the state-run Institute of Post Graduate Medical Education & Research (IPGME&R) as well as SSKM Hospital on Friday clarified that all he meant was that the chief minister Mamata Banerjee ‘may have felt a sensation of pushing from behind’.
His statement had triggered concerns in connection with the safety and security of the chief minister.
Today, while giving clarifications on his ‘push from behind’ theory he told reporters at SSKM Hospital, “This is a sensation of pushing from behind that led to the fall (of chief minister). Our job is to treat and we have done our best. There was a misinterpretation of what I said last evening.”

According to a doctor of the eight-member team of experts monitoring the 70 year-old chief minister’s health condition, “Her condition is stable today and we are planning to carry out several medical investigations to check whether she has any major ailments. She takes regular drugs for blood pressure and cholesterol.”
Some members of the team visited her today at her Kalighat residence and took stock of her health condition. She has been asked to take rest as much as possible.
The ruling Trinamul Congress chairperson Mamata Banerjee was admitted to SSKM Hospital’s Woodburn Ward on Thursday night after she reportedly suffered major cut injuries to her forehead at her residence.
The Trinamul Congress soon after the incident shared photos of Miss Banerjee with a deep cut in the middle of her forehead with blood oozing out from the injured spot.
She was rushed to the hospital by her nephew Abhishek Banerjee.
She had suffered leg injury in Nandigram in East Midnapore during Assembly elections in 2021. She also had to undergo a surgery on her leg.
In 2023, she had also undergone a micro surgery on her left knee at the SSKM Hospital.
