The standoff between ruling TMC leaders and Governor Jagdeep Dhankhar turned bitter after ruling party MP Saugata Roy on December 29 alleged that the latter was sending messages against Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee.
Replying to Roy through an official letter on Thursday, Governor Dhankhar in a point-to-point rebuttal clarified all the allegations leveled by Roy and also shared screenshots of his conversation with the TMC MP on Twitter.
“Dear Professor Saugata Roy, the wide coverage in the mainstream media- print and visual as well as in social media (without getting the version at this end) – of your claim – “The governor sends me texts against Mamata Banerjee every day. and that is what is ‘immoral’ has necessitated the response to this end in order to set the record straight in the public domain, as your stand could not have been more distant from the position and justification of fact. Constitutional Heads Such grievous imputation of one by one in your excited state and as such, in such bound factually unstable situation, has no parallel (sic),” reads the Governor’s letter to TMC MP Saugata Roy.
“The first communication to myself, dated May 16, 2021, indicated thus:- ‘It has been observed that over a long period, in an orderly manner, serious, and on several occasions sharp criticism of my role and actions as Governor Your favour. Such an unfavorable stand, on the part of the ruling party in the state, while appreciating an experienced MP like you, does not serve healthy public interest, especially those associated with you or other senior functionaries. In the absence of any response for my efforts in the party. Dialogue is the essence of democracy. I greatly appreciate the fact that you give free time for talks at Raj Bhavan at your convenience. This will help both of us together in the public interest. Will get a chance to work together. It was accepted on the same day (sic) at your end,” the excerpt reads from his letter.
The governor accused the state government of not giving importance to his letters, saying, “After a gap of seven months, on December 19, 2021, I took note of your widely reported media response:-‘ the governor writes the letter. But the state government is answerable to the legislative assembly and not to the one holding the governorship. It is up to the state government to answer it or not. But it seems to create controversy and conflict with the government. He has a habit of tweeting to enter.”
Claiming that the Chief Minister of the state Mamata Banerjee was violating 100% of her ‘duties’ under Article 167, Governor Dhankhar further wrote, “Your stand being inconsistent with the Constitution, I have seen your stature only as a personal It was appropriate to respond.
In view of your public indictment on December 27, 2021, which was contrary to the facts, that the Governor is lying, apparently deeply hurt, again only a personal response…. On December 28, 2021, our last exchange so far, after quoting Article 167 of the Constitution I indicated – “The Hon’ble Chief Minister is violating 100% of his “duties” under Article 167 of the Constitution. One case The information has not been made available in the U.S. yet. Can we have a ‘constitutional-led’ rule. Withholding of information is a relief and relief to the violators of the law as well as those who acquire property at the cost of the public. I this I am bound to ensure that the law deals with such violations. Dhankhar’s three-page letter to the TMC MP came after Roy alleged that he received messages against Mamata Banerjee from the governor.
“It is immoral for the governor to indulge in such activities. I think someone is provoking him to make such remarks against Mamata Banerjee. He is not respecting his chair,” Roy had said.
