WB CM Mamata Banerjee: Our CS is holding a press briefing every day but we still see negative publicity. This is not a situation to play with. This is a serious situation. 3.4 crore households have been surveyed. This is not a matter of joke. Bengal has a large population. Today there was PM’s VC with CMs. Only 9 states were allowed to speak. We were not allowed still we attended the VC. Central govt is issuing notifications suddenly without consulting the states. They said to open standalone shops. If we open these shops then there will be crowding and lockdown violation. There is a problem with planning. You are sending the Central team, no problem with that we will cooperate with them. We will let our decision on relaxation day after tomorrow after holding a meeting.
West Bengal CM Mamata Banerjee: Red, green, orange zones have to be examined carefully to understand where what can be relaxed. A decision will be told the day after. Implementing authorities are the state govt. When we do good, no one gives credit. But when something goes wrong then they will talk big. You’ve seen the problems we’ve had with the kits. We have decided those who have homes to isolate them, we will allow them to isolate themselves at home, and then that means we don’t have to use officials to bring them to quarantine. Home quarantine is model quarantine. Those who want to get treated by staying at their homes, we will allow them. We have not got any monetary help from the Centre to fight COVID-19.
