Kolkata: Amid accusations of molestation by a woman employee against West Bengal Governor Dr. CV Ananda Bose, the Governor on Thursday showed CCTV footage of the premises of May 2 to around 100 common people.
Footage from two CCTV cameras at the main (north) gate from 5.30 pm of May 2 were being shown to people at the hall on the ground floor of Raj Bhavan and screening was underway.
A contractual woman employee of Raj Bhavan on Friday lodged a written complaint with the Kolkata Police alleging that she was molested by Bose in the governor’s house.
Following the allegation, the police requested access to the CCTV footage in question from the Raj Bhavan. However, the Governor instructed staff members not to cooperate with the police on this matter.
In response to the situation, the Raj Bhavan announced a program called ‘SACH KE SAAMNE’ to address what it described as mischievous and fabricated accusations. The program invites people to request attendance via email or phone to view the CCTV footage at the Governor’s House, with the exception of Mamata Banerjee and her associated police due to their publicised stance on the matter.
