Bimal appearance: Police authority undermined’

"Being the chief minister of West Bengal, had Mamata Banerjee instructed the Police Commissioner to arrest Bimal Gurung from Salt Lake without compromising on anything, her political efficacy, administrative acumen and caliber would have gone far more brighter, and ahead of the 2021 Assembly elections, her position would have been more secured," former Inspector General of Police (IGP) Pankaj Datta said.

Trinamul welcomes Bimal move

"We welcome Bimal Gurung's commitment to peace and decision to withdraw support from NDA, while reposing faith in Mamata Banerjee's leadership. BJP's attempts to use Gorkhaland issue for petty politics and teir untrustworthy nature now lay fully exposed before people of Bengal," the party said in its official Twitter handle.
