First, Supreme Court sent a notice to Mamata Banerjee, gave relief to the ED, and stayed the FIRs filed by the Mamata govt in ED raid case. Yesterday, Supreme Court directed Punjab govt not to take any steps against the publication of Punjab Kesari in witch-hunt case. Today, in setback to DMK, High Court quashed FIR against Amit Malviya and called Udhayanidhi Stalin’s Sanatan remarks hate speech. Three days, three cases, all opposition-ruled states. Now tell me who the real murderers of democracy are.

🚨CRAZY! ED has sought a CBI probe against Mamata Banerjee & senior Kolkata Police officers for obstructing ED raids linked to political consultancy firm I-PAC 🤯 — It alleges ₹20 crore in proceeds of crime was routed to I-PAC via hawala channels😳 — ED claims Mamata entered a raid location on Loudon Road, removed digital devices & documents, and repeated this at the I-PAC office. ED says authorised officers were forcibly DISPOSSESSED of evidence. These are GRAVE allegations now under scrutiny.

LOL. Hearing on ED’s plea against CM Mamata Banerjee for allegedly obstructing I-PAC raids gets adjourned due to 'COMMOTION' in Calcutta HC. Seriously?😂 • If a High Court can’t control its own courtroom, how will it enforce rule of law in the state? ED alleges direct obstruction under PMLA by the CM herself. Does the court even grasp the gravity, or is chaos now a valid shield for power?

#WATCH | Kolkata | On the ED raids at the IPAC office in Kolkata, West Bengal LoP Suvendu Adhikari says, "I will not comment on the raid; ED will answer why the raid is going on. CM Mamata Banerjee has a history of disrupting the work of the central agencies. What Mamata did today was obstruct the investigation... In 2021, she was sitting on a protest outside the CBI office... Naturally, this kind of action by the Chief Minister, direct interference in the work of constitutional institutions and obstruction of the investigation, is condemnable for a Chief Minister, who is not just a political leader but also an administrative authority. ED will surely take action against the Chief Minister as well, using its powers..."

Mamata Banerjee Vs. ED: West Bengal and Mamata Banerjee are witnessing a sudden political flashpoint just ahead of the February elections. An ED raid at I-PAC, a political consultancy working with TMC, has triggered a direct confrontation between the Chief Minister and central agencies, turning an investigation into a national political moment. The raid is linked to the coal money laundering case that surfaced in 2020, involving alleged illegal diversion and black marketing of coal from Eastern Coalfields. ED claims it was stopped from seizing key documents and devices when the Chief Minister herself reached the spot, citing obstruction of a lawful probe. Supporters call this selective timing and political pressure by BJP. Critics ask a simple question: if there was nothing to hide, why intervene? As narratives collide, Bengal’s voters will judge what truly serves the state’s future!

Dear HM Amit Shah, Sir as a citizen of this country may I ask does a CM of a State (Mamata Banerjee) holds the special power to intrude an ongoing raid by central agencies like ED, and snatch away files linked to money laundering in Coal Scam? Is this legal? or is she above law?

BREAKING | ED Director Rahul Navin arrives in Kolkata for a three-day visit to West Bengal. During an earlier raid at the I-PAC office, West Bengal CM Mamata Banerjee had intervened and interrupted ED officials, taking certain documents with her. Today, I-PAC has admitted to receiving a Rs 13.5-crore unsecured loan from a Rohtak-based firm which, as per records, does not exist. These developments raise serious questions about what is being concealed, or what may unfold next.

THIS ISN'T JUST A RAID. IT'S A REMINDER THAT IMPUNITY IS OFTEN AS BRITTLE AS POWER. Hear Abhishek Banerjee as he and his TMC mates today faced co-ordinated Police and ED action in separate corruption probes. 1. A team from Salboni Police Station reached TMC MP Abhishek Banerjee's Kolkata residence around 2 a.m. in connection with the alleged Salboni land scam. Sources said investigators were searching for his aide, Sumit Roy, after leads emerged during the interrogation of arrested former Medinipur MLA Sujoy Hazra. Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee reportedly arrived at the residence shortly afterwards. 2. ED conducted searches at seven locations linked to TMC MLA and former minister Madan Mitra in the municipal recruitment scam. Raids covered his Dakshineswar residence, Bhawanipur party office and other premises. Investigators are probing allegations of bribes for municipal jobs and examining documents, cash and bank account details recovered during searches. 3. The ED also searched businessman Sanjib Ghosh's premises in connection with the wider recruitment scam probe.

#WATCH | Delhi: On the ED raids in the IPAC office in Kolkata, Senior Advocate Aman Sinha says, "This was an ongoing investigation in the Rs 1300 crore coal smuggling case and related Hawala transactions. In the course of investigations, it transpired that there were eyewitness accounts and statements to this effect, that a large chunk of funds was diverted to IPAC. It was the legal obligation, statutory duty of the ED to conduct a raid at these premises. And they were conducting this raid peacefully and in a well-organised manner, in accordance with the mandate of the PMLA Act. All of a sudden, the Chief Minister of the state stormed onto the scene of the ongoing huge corruption raid, and she came with police personnel, who snatched away all the crucial evidence, all the vital papers related to the investigation, and hampered the investigation. This is completely unethical and illegal. This is against the statutory provisions of the PMLA Act, against BNS, and completely unconstitutional under the basic tenets of our democracy and constitutionalism. This shows that it is a desperate attempt by the TMC to play the victim card and create hysteria on the eve of elections... I think great injustice is being done to people of West Bengal when corrupt people are being shielded by the Chief Minister, who are involved in such a big-ticket corruption scam..."

Partha Chatterjee severely penalised Abhishek Banerjee for trying to change the traditional political culture of Bengal. He noted that Abhishek's aggressive, derogatory public attacks against Union Home Minister Amit Shah were highly unacceptable. He claimed Mamata Banerjee transformed the TMC into a personal training ground to groom Abhishek Banerjee as her successor. He criticized top leaders for their inability to accept the democratic verdict delivered by the voters. He blamed political consultancy firm IPAC for weakening the grassroots party organisation and deeply damaging TMC's public image. The timing of Chatterjee's rebellion comes as the TMC grapples with its worst-ever internal upheaval after the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) won a massive victory with over 200 seats in West Bengal: The party is currently battling a widespread "resignation wave", with reports indicating over 100 municipal councillors and local leaders quitting their posts out of frustration with the leadership. In response to the growing dissension from Chatterjee and other rebel leaders, Mamata Banerjee released a Bengali poem titled "Chameleon" (Girgit). The poem explicitly targets party dissenters, accusing them of changing their colours within hours and abandoning the ship during difficult times for personal gain. Partha Chatterjee, who previously served as the state's education minister, was arrested in July 2022 by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) regarding a multi-crore teacher recruitment scam. He was subsequently suspended by the TMC and spent over three years in custody before securing conditional bail from the Supreme Court. Chatterjee maintains that he was politically targeted by his own party leaders and made a "victim of circumstances". Credit : CNN News18.

Mamata Banerjee’s conduct during the Enforcement Directorate’s raid on I-PAC, a private firm under investigation in a coal smuggling and money laundering case, represents a serious breach of constitutional propriety and executive restraint. Reports and visuals indicate that Kolkata Police officials removed documents and files from the I-PAC office and placed them in Mamata Banerjee’s car. This raises fundamental questions. Were these documents related to the Trinamool Congress, and if so, why were state police personnel handling party material during an ED raid? If they were official documents of the Government of West Bengal, what business did they have inside the office of a private political consultancy firm? Was I-PAC working solely for the TMC, or was it also operating on behalf of the state government? If the latter is true, it signals a complete collapse of the separation between party interests and state authority. The gravity of the matter deepens in light of the 2020 West Bengal coal smuggling case, which involves senior West Bengal Police officers and high-profile IPS officials. Did the sudden mobilisation of Kolkata Police and Bidhannagar Police serve the cause of law and order, or was it meant to obstruct the investigation and shield those under the scanner? Most disturbing was the spectacle of a sitting Chief Minister personally rushing to an active ED raid site. Since when does a Chief Minister confront investigating agencies on the street instead of seeking remedies through the courts? If this was a routine probe, why the public theatrics? Which provision of the Constitution permits a Chief Minister to hover over an ongoing investigation and convert a law-enforcement action into a political show? Why was the State Police Chief brought along? Are police chiefs independent constitutional authorities, or have they been reduced to personal escorts of the ruling party? If the agencies were acting unlawfully, why was the matter not challenged legally instead of being stage-managed for optics? This episode brazenly erases the line between party and state, governance and intimidation. The question Bengal is now asking is unavoidable: is this about protecting constitutional principles, or about burying a paper trail and is this panic ahead of the 2026 Assembly elections?

Let alone Women's Safety, Mamata Banerjee's inept Administration can't even protect an elephant, that too after remaining complicit while Hon'ble Supreme Court of India's Order was being violated. A pregnant elephant gets murdered by 'Hula party' (squads comprising people, armed with searchlights, flaming torches and crackers, deployed to scare away wild elephants back to the forest, who have strayed into human habitation), after being speared by burning iron rods in full view of the WB Forest Department personnels. The mother elephant along with it's calf strayed into Jhargram town on Thursday. The mother elephant, believed to be pregnant, was struggling to walk and wriggling in pain after the burning rod stuck above its hind legs, and eventually collapsed on the ground. --------------------------------- VIOLATION OF THE HON’BLE SUPREME COURT'S ORDER --------------------------------- In the Prerna Singh Bindra vs Union Of India on 4 December, 2018, the Hon’ble Supreme Court of India Ordered several restrictions regarding the use of fireballs and spikes to drive away elephants. Here are the excerpts of the Order involving the State of West Bengal:- "We have heard learned counsel for the petitioners as well as learned counsel for the State of West Bengal. In an affidavit dated 12th October, 2018, the Union of India has annexed a Report of the Inspector General of Forests (Project Elephant Division) in compliance of the order dated 17th September, 2018 passed by this Court. In the Report, with regard to the State of West Bengal, it is stated in paragraphs 7 to 9 as follows: “7.The West Bengal State Forest Department have categorically informed that the hula parties are being controlled by the Department staff and they are not using any inhuman methods especially throwing fire balls etc. while driving away the elephants from the crop fields. No spiked barricades or pillars are erected in West Bengal for control of crop raiding by elephants." "Learned counsel for the State of West Bengal further says that the State of West Bengal will consult the Wildlife Institute of India for advice on the use of commonly used repellent methods as well as new repellent methods and deterrent methods mentioned in the Guidelines for the purpose of reducing, if not, eliminating human elephant conflicts." "The statement of learned counsel for the State of West Bengal is taken on record and it is made clear that the State of West Bengal is bound by that statement. With regard to the use of mashaals, it is submitted that this is the only method presently available to the State of West Bengal and the migration of elephants is due to start any day and perhaps it may not be possible to implement any other method to avoid human elephant conflict. As an emergency measure, under the direct control of the Forest Department, mashaals may be used for the time being only to avoid any deaths and crop damage that may take place and ensure the proper movement of elephants in the corridors. The mashaals be used only in an emergency. As far as spikes of all kinds are concerned, it is categorically stated by learned counsel for the State of West Bengal that they are not being used and will not be used." ---------------------------------------- The West Bengal Government is a total failure at all ends. They can't even keep their promise which they made before the Hon'ble Supreme Court of India. This killing of the elephant at Jhargram is not only tragic but a complete violation of the Hon’ble Supreme Court's Order. I would expect that responsibility is fixed and the guilty should be punished appropriately as per the provisions of the Law.

The mother elephant along with it's calf strayed into Jhargram town on Thursday. The mother elephant, believed to be pregnant, was struggling to walk and wriggling in pain after the burning rod stuck above its hind legs, and eventually collapsed on the ground. --------------------------------- VIOLATION OF THE HON’BLE SUPREME COURT'S ORDER --------------------------------- In the Prerna Singh Bindra vs Union Of India on 4 December, 2018, the Hon’ble Supreme Court of India Ordered several restrictions regarding the use of fireballs and spikes to drive away elephants. Here are the excerpts of the Order involving the State of West Bengal:- "We have heard learned counsel for the petitioners as well as learned counsel for the State of West Bengal. In an affidavit dated 12th October, 2018, the Union of India has annexed a Report of the Inspector General of Forests (Project Elephant Division) in compliance of the order dated 17th September, 2018 passed by this Court. In the Report, with regard to the State of West Bengal, it is stated in paragraphs 7 to 9 as follows: “7.The West Bengal State Forest Department have categorically informed that the hula parties are being controlled by the Department staff and they are not using any inhuman methods especially throwing fire balls etc. while driving away the elephants from the crop fields. No spiked barricades or pillars are erected in West Bengal for control of crop raiding by elephants." "Learned counsel for the State of West Bengal further says that the State of West Bengal will consult the Wildlife Institute of India for advice on the use of commonly used repellent methods as well as new repellent methods and deterrent methods mentioned in the Guidelines for the purpose of reducing, if not, eliminating human elephant conflicts." "The statement of learned counsel for the State of West Bengal is taken on record and it is made clear that the State of West Bengal is bound by that statement. With regard to the use of mashaals, it is submitted that this is the only method presently available to the State of West Bengal and the migration of elephants is due to start any day and perhaps it may not be possible to implement any other method to avoid human elephant conflict. As an emergency measure, under the direct control of the Forest Department, mashaals may be used for the time being only to avoid any deaths and crop damage that may take place and ensure the proper movement of elephants in the corridors. The mashaals be used only in an emergency. As far as spikes of all kinds are concerned, it is categorically stated by learned counsel for the State of West Bengal that they are not being used and will not be used." ---------------------------------------- The West Bengal Government is a total failure at all ends. They can't even keep their promise which they made before the Hon'ble Supreme Court of India. This killing of the elephant at Jhargram is not only tragic but a complete violation of the Hon’ble Supreme Court's Order. I would expect that responsibility is fixed and the guilty should be punished appropriately as per the provisions of the Law.
