Guv vs CM: Calcutta HC to hear the defamation matter on July 10

The Calcutta High Court said on Thursday that it will hear the defamation suit filed by West Bengal Governor CV Ananda Bose against Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on July 10. Justice Krishna Rao told deputy solicitor general Dhiraj Trivedi, who appeared for the governor, to make media organizations referred to in the suit parties in the case before the hearing begins, said lawyers present at the court on Thursday.

Bose filed the suit against Mamata Banerjee on June 28, a day after she said before the media that several women had told her that they were afraid to visit the Raj Bhawan. “Women have informed me they are afraid to visit Raj Bhavan due to recent incidents reported there”, the chief minister had said. 

Bose had criticized Mamata Banerjee for her remarks, saying it was expected of public representatives not to create “erroneous and slanderous impressions”.

Mamata Banerjee’s remarks were a reference to an allegation of molestation made against Bose on May 2 by a contractual woman employee of Raj Bhavan. The Kolkata Police is probing the issue.
