Suvendu Adhikari Threatens Legal Action After Mamata Banerjee Misses Defamation Notice Deadline

West Bengal Leader of Opposition Suvendu Adhikari has announced plans to initiate legal action against Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee after she did not respond to his defamation notice within the stipulated 72-hour period. The notice demanded evidence to support her public allegations linking Adhikari to a coal smuggling scam. Adhikari described the accusations as baseless and politically motivated, warning that he will pursue civil and criminal defamation proceedings.
