Molestation charges by Raj Bhavan woman employee

Recently, a contractual woman employee of Raj Bhavan lodged a written complaint with the Kolkata Police alleging that she was molested by Governor CV Ananda Bose in Raj Bhavan. A series of social media posts by the Trinamool Congress leaders also revealed that a female staff from Raj Bhavan had made allegations of molestation against Governor CV Ananda Bose.

Reacting to the allegations Bose earlier said, “Truth shall triumph. I refuse to be cowed down by engineered narratives. If anybody wants some election benefits by maligning me, God bless them. But they cannot stop my fight against corruption and violence in Bengal,”

Raj Bhavan entry banned for TMC leaders and police

The Bengal governor through a statement recently banned the entry of West Bengal Minister Chandrima Bhattacharya into the Raj Bhavan premises of Kolkata, Darjeeling and Barrackpore for "defamation and anti-constitutional media statements". The governor also barred the police from conducting any investigation against him.

The statement also said that the governor has also banned the entry of police into Raj Bhavan premises in the guise of conducting unauthorized, illegitimate, sham and motivated 'investigation' to placate political bosses during elections.
