“Now, the Yatra is passing through West Bengal over the last few days, I have been made aware that again some miscreants may foment trouble for the Yatra. I am not sure if the intention may be to show the state administration in bad light or to disturb the yatra,” Kharge’s letter to the Chief Minister reads.
“I am writing to request that you kindly issue appropriate directions to ensure the smooth passage of the yatra through Bengal and ensure the safety of the yatris, including Rahul Gandhi. I am aware that the Gandhi family and you share very cordial relations, and you would ensure that all security concerns would be addressed adequately. However, I thought it would be best if I write to you requesting for the same,” the letter added.
The communique between Kharge and Mamata is significant as West Bengal state Congress President Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury has accused the state administration of creating administrative hurdles through denial of permission for different programs associated with the rally.
