TMC has expelled youth wing leaders Kuntal Ghosh and Santanu Banerjee, who have been arrested by ED for their alleged involvement in School Service Commission (SSC) scam.
Manik Bhattacharya is the second TMC MLA to be arrested in West Bengal’s SSC case, after Partha Chatterjee. ED claims he was one of the ‘key persons’ in alleged cash-for-jobs scam.
ED claims 'common people' had to pay lakhs for jobs in schools when Partha Chatterjee was Bengal education minister, alleges he used shell companies to launder ‘tainted money’.
Mamata inducted 8 ministers — 5 cabinet ministers, 1 minister of state with independent charge, and 2 MoSes — and dropped 4 in a ministerial reshuffle Wednesday.
Chatterjee, sacked from cabinet and party posts after ED arrest, was formerly considered No. 3 in TMC. He was among first lieutenants to join Mamata Banerjee when she floated TMC in 1998.
