In Kolkata, the Trinamool Congress (TMC) has decried the arrest of its senior minister, Jyotipriyo Mallick, as "vendetta" politics and has raised concerns about the absence of actions against BJP leaders who switched allegiances despite facing corruption allegations and investigations by central agencies, stated an agency report.
The Enforcement Directorate (ED), according to the reports, detained West Bengal Minister Jyotipriyo Mallick on Friday due to a money laundering case associated with an alleged multi-crore ration distribution scandal in the state. His apprehension occurred after an extensive 17-18 hours of questioning by the central agency.
