KOLKATA: West Bengal Governor C V Ananda Bose on Sunday threatened to take legal action against veteran Trinamool Congress MP Kalyan Banerjee for the “invective” remarks he made a day earlier, triggering a political face-off.

Kalyan alleged that the Governor’s House, Raj Bhavan, was allowing the stocking of arms and ammunition for BJP leaders inside its premises. The MP from Sreerampore in Hooghly district also claimed that the Governor was providing shelter to “criminals (BJP leaders)” inside the Raj Bhavan complex and giving them weapons to attack ruling party workers.

“As long as an incompetent governor like you remains, as long as a BJP-servant governor remains, you will never see anything good happening in West Bengal,” Kalyan added.

The remarks prompted Bose to respond on Sunday.
