Bengal Minister Ghatak Wiki, Biography, Age, Spouse, Height, Weight, Net Worth, Fast Facts

Since Wednesday morning, CBI detectives have led long-distance running strikes at five houses in Ghatak: three in Asansol in West Burdwan town and two in Kolkata.

“CBI authorities conducted raids and search efforts for more than seven hours. They really look at every single record. I was unable to attend the management survey meeting led by Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee.

All of this activity was intentional, politically provoked, and intended to censor me. I am confident that such an effort to smear someone will not occur in the future,” Ghatak, who had dodged several Enforcement Directorate (ED) requests to address the coal transportation stunt, told media.

He said that CBI detectives have held on to different searches of their houses in the strikes. “The document related to the subtleties of the general ledger where my payment rates as MLA and state service are credited has been seized. They have also kept a duplicate of my personal government forms. They also confiscated the SIM cards of three of my cell phones,” Ghatak said.

In addition, he gave his own justifications for why he dodged several requests from the ED. “To begin with, they brought me before the decisions of the Municipal Corporation of Asansol. Then, I was called ahead of the secondary polls for the Asansol Lok Sabha voter demographic. However, I responded to every call and understood why I couldn’t go to New Delhi to face addressing,” Ghatak said.

Upon learning whether he would respect the ED’s new call requesting to be available at the office headquarters in New Delhi on September 14, the Justice Minister said that he has not yet received any notification or email from the ED on this charge. “In any case, it will be difficult for me to go to Delhi on September 14 as a short session of the Assembly will start from that day,” he said.
