CBI being used as political tool, party to hit streets: TMC

Update: 2014-11-22 00:12 GMT
‘CBI is being used as a political tool to settle scores and unleash political vendetta against the TMC as those who are in power cannot fight us politically. The previous UPA government had done the same thing. The present BJP government is following in the same footsteps,’ TMC secretary-general Partha Chatterjee told a press conference.

He said the Trinamool Congress condemns this vindictive attitude and ‘we along with the masses of Bengal will hit the streets and organise protest programmes.’

Chatterjee said tomorrow(Saturday) there would be a party programme at the Netaji Indoor stadium from where a political message would be delivered to counter the ‘vindictive attitude’.

In a big embarrassment to the ruling Trinamool Congress, its Rajya Sabha MP Srinjoy Bose was on Friday arrested by the CBI for alleged involvement in the multi-crore Saradha ponzi scam and West Bengal Textiles Minister Shyamapada Mukherjee was quizzed in another related case.
