Governor CV Ananda Bose forewarned of a much larger action at midnight on Saturday, a day after West Bengal Education Minister Bratya Basu accused him of attempting to “destroy” the state’s higher education system and presiding over a “puppet regime” in institutions.
A Raj Bhavan official reported that Bose had “signed two confidential sealed letters,” one for the state secretariat, Nabanna, and the other for the Center, as the clock was getting close to midnight.
The official stated that “it would be disclosed later” in regard to the letter’s contents.
The person continued, “The governor signed two confidential letters tonight, one intended for Nabanna and the other for Delhi.”
The person told PTI that the letters’ contents would be revealed later and hinted that they would deal with the current spat between the governor and the state government.
A few hours after attending a lengthy meeting with the chief secretary, HK Dwivedi, at Raj Bhavan, Bose signed the letters.
But neither the state administration nor the Raj Bhavan made any mention of the meeting’s subject.
The person told PTI that the letters’ contents would be revealed later and hinted that they would deal with the current spat between the governor and the state government.
In light of the harsh criticism and attacks leveled by the state education minister earlier in the day, Bose issued a warning of far greater action at midnight.
“Await the moment that midnight strikes today. You will witness what is going on,” Bose told reporters in the afternoon, outside of a program taking place here.
