BJP using central agencies as they couldn't win polls: Mamata hinting at CBI summons to Partha Chatterjee

Kolkata/IBNS: West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee Thursday slammed the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) for allegedly using central agencies for political points, breaking her silence on the summons issued to her senior minister Partha Chatterjee over an alleged recruitment scam.

While addressing her party workers in Jhargram, Banerjee said, "The BJP is forcefully using central agencies as they couldn't win elections... They have no shame."

Chatterjee, a former state Education Minister, was summoned by the CBI, which is probing the alleged scam regarding recruitments in the education sector, Wednesday evening.

He was quizzed for more than three hours.

The Chief Minister, who is on a tour to North Bengal, also warned the Opposition of facing consequences for their alleged misdeeds.
