The West Bengal teacher recruitment scam took a new turn on Wednesday. The Enforcement Directorate has also recovered another Rs 30 crore from another house of Arpita Mukherjee at Belghoria near Rathtala, Kolkata. Counting of notes continued till 4 am on Thursday. The probe agency is yet to issue an official statement on the recovery. But according to reports, apart from cash, a lot of gold and jewelery have also been recovered from this flat. BJP MP Dilip Ghosh said, "Partha Chatterjee has been facing CBI, ED probe for a long time which has put him in trouble. Arpita Mukherjee has already started telling everything. We are listening."
In a statement published in Jago Bangla, Kunal Ghosh has apparently linked the ED action with Jagdeep Dhankhar, the NDA candidate for the post of Vice President. He said, "The day we went to Raj Bhavan this month to submit our memorandum against Suvendu Adhikari, Dhankhar ji suddenly said that he would not spare Partha Chatterjee. We all tried to convince him that this may not be right, but he was firm on his stand." However, Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on Wednesday said that anyone found guilty should be punished, but media trial is not acceptable. Investigative agencies should not be used to defame political parties.
