The much-awaited return of the Boroli fish, also known as the Hilsa Boroli, has brought relief to the residents of North Bengal and rekindled memories of the late former Chief Minister Buddhadeb Bhattacharya, a noted admirer of this prized delicacy.
The demise of the former chief minister Buddhadeb Bhattacharya came as a great shock to the people of the state.
"I don't know anything about a Padma Bhushan award. No one told me anything about it. If they have given me a Padma Bhushan award. I am rejecting it," he said in a brief statement in Bengali.
On the questions of Singur and Nandigram, instead of apologising for them, and forgetting that they were instrumental for the CPM's defeat in 2011, the new narrative was that Buddhadeb Bhattacharya's actions were essentially sound, though there were some mistakes. They even forgot to mention that they were not mistakes but blunders.
CPIM has requested Buddhadeb Bhattacharya's medical team to allow him to go to Brigade. The doctors, though, haven't yet given the nod.
Buddhadeb Bhattacharya was discharged at around 11:30 in the morning. He was escorted back to his residence by his wife Mira Bhattacharya.
Buddhadeb Bhattacharya, 76, was put on mechanical ventilator support at the critical care unit of the private hospital where he was admitted on Wednesday.
Buddhadeb Bhattacharya, who was the chief minister of West Bengal from 2000 to 2011, has been suffering from breathing other old age-related ailments.
