It is easy to mint millions in Bengal if one knows the ropes and has the right contacts

KBC, hosted by superstar Amitabh Bachhan, is a very popular TV show. Some of the participants hit the jackpot and win lakhs of rupees, a few even win crores. However, in Bengal, anyone can mint millions provided he knows the ropes and has the right contacts. This is not a fig of one’s imagination but true. It seems a relative of Partha Chatterjee, who worked as a house painter, now owns a number of hotels in tourist spots like Darjeeling, Uttarakhand and Puri apart from Dubai. He also owns multiple land and farmhouses in New Town-Rajarhat area. This individual is Prasanna Kumar Roy, the second middleman in SSC scam case. The CBI has taken him into custody from New Town. His is a rags to riches story and proof that it is easy to mint millions in Bengal if one has the correct contacts. CBI arrests close relative of Partha Chatterjee - once a HOUSE PAINTER, now owner of farm houses, hotels in DUBAI. It was a shock to the state of Bengal when it saw the mountain of money and properties belonging to Partha Chatterjee and Arpita Mukherjee. Partha is now in jail. He was a minister in the cabinet of chief minister Mamata Banerjee.

Another person who is believed to have benefited from contacts in right places is Saigal Hossain, bodyguard of Anubrata Mondal. CBI has already arrested both of them on charges of cattle smuggling. In its chargesheet, the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) claims that Saigal Hossain received 'illgotten' money on behalf of Anubrata Mondal. The CBI alleged that Hossain earned Rs 26.35 lakhs over a period of seven years from 2015-2022. Investigations revealed the entire amount was deposited in an account maintained by a local bank. CBI arrested Hossain in June. According to the CBI chargesheet, Mondal is the alleged kingpin of the cattle smuggling racket. Enamul Haque was another of his associates. His role was to extend protection and patronage to those who bought the animals at a market in Ilambazar. The modus operandi was to ferry the animals from the market to thr Indo-Bangla border. Cattle smuggling case: Over 26 lakhs earned by Anubrata Mondal’s bodyguard in 7 years, says CBI. Saigal Hossain had purchased innumerable properties during 2015 and 2022 in various places.

Nothing new in the results of Assembly Elections 2022 – BJP captures four states and AAP gets its Punjab

Yes – the Bharatiya Janata Party BJP won four of the states. These were the all-important Uttar Pradesh with its tourist spots, Uttarakhand which is another travel destination, Goa with its beaches, carnivals and feni and Manipur famous for its dances. Aam Aadmi Party AAP led by the dynamic Arvind Kejriwal seized power in Punjab. It showed that a regional party like AAP could shake an empire. The Indian National Congress appears to be directionless and is gradually losing relevance. It needs infusion of new blood, a leader who can lead by example and who can call the shots.

Mamata Banerjee, the Trinamool Congress TMC supremo from Bengal wanted to wage a war by creating a new front of small regional parties. She did send across teams of her loyal followers to Manipur and Goa while she herself went to Uttar Pradesh. She had meetings with the Samajbadi Party leader Akhilesh Yadav. However, her efforts went in vain. Political parties should realize that it is not easy for a regional leader to sway the sentiments of the locals. Any state has its unique problems and an outsider cannot change their line of thinking or provide solutions.
