Sahay, belonging to the 1988 batch, currently holds the position of Director General and Commandant General of the Home Guards. He was previously relieved from the role of Director, Security, following a security breach at Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee’s residence back in 2022.

Banerjee, aged 69, sustained injuries to her forehead and nose during the incident at her South Kolkata residence. Bandyopadhyay emphasized that their primary focus was on treating her injuries and that there was a misunderstanding regarding his previous statement.

Following the mishap, Banerjee received medical attention at a government-run hospital, where she underwent stitches and various medical assessments. Fortunately, doctors declared her condition stable and discharged her shortly after.

Following his decision to remove the party affiliation from his social media profile, Ghosh delivered a scathing critique of Bandyopadhyay via his official platform on Saturday. Ghosh urged authorities to investigate the financial transactions related to Bandyopadhyay's hospitalization at Apollo Hospital, Bhubaneswar, subsequent to his arrest by the CBI in January 2017 in connection with the Rose Valley chit fund case.

Prime Minister Modi, who embarked on a two-day visit to West Bengal, arrived at the Raj Bhavan late on Friday afternoon after delivering a speech at a public rally in Arambagh, Hooghly district. During his address, he launched a scathing critique against the state government and the ruling Trinamool Congress, touching upon issues such as Sandeshkhali and instances of financial impropriety.

Shahjahan, apprehended from Minakhah in North 24 Parganas district after evading capture for 55 days, was placed under 10-day police custody by a district court on Thursday. Shortly after, State Education Minister Bratya Basu announced Shahjahan's suspension from the Trinamool Congress for a duration of six years. Shahjahan, known as a Trinamool strongman in Sandeshkhali, is also accused of harassing villagers in the troubled area.

As part of a rally organized by the BJP's youth wing in Kolkata, party workers also carried copies of 'Barnaparichay,' a popular primer written by Iswarchandra Vidyasagar, a 19th-century polymath and an iconic figure in the state. The aim was to remind Mamata Banerjee of the richness of the Bengali language.
