Army Seeks West Bengal Governor's Intervention Over Mamata Banerjee's Fort William Allegation

The Indian Army's Eastern Command has sought intervention from West Bengal Governor C.V. Ananda Bose following Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee's allegation that a senior Army officer at Fort William was involved in political activities supporting the BJP during the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls. Two Army generals met the Governor last week to object to these claims. The Governor has taken note and referred the matter to central authorities. Banerjee's remarks have sparked reactions from political parties amid ongoing electoral roll controversies.
