TMC heavyweight, Durga Puja patron, now a person of interest for ED: Who is Bengal minister Sujit Bose?
The latest Trinamool Congress (TMC) leader under the Enforcement Directorate’s (ED) radar is West Bengal Fire and Emergency Services Minister Sujit Bose. A team of ED officials on Friday searched two locations linked to Bose, a TMC heavyweight, along with premises linked to Tapas Roy, the minister for statistics and planning, and former North Dum Dum municipality chairperson Subodh Chakraborty. They are probing a municipal jobs scam case that allegedly took place across multiple civic bodies in the state between 2014 and 2018. It is alleged that “hundreds of jobs in the municipalities were given in exchange for money”.
