TC against administrative inquiry into Nandigram firing

"The CPI-M will tamper with the evidence at Nandigram, where they are planning a fresh bloodbath as also at Khejuri,"

Kolkata: The Trinamool Congress on Monday said that administrative inquiry launched by West Bengal government into the March 14 Nandigram firing, calling it an attempt to divert attention.

"We are totally opposed to the administrative inquiry. We don't trust such a probe by the state government. It is a planned attempt to divert attention from the Nandigram genocide," Trinamool chief Mamata Banerjee told reporters after a 45- minute meeting with Governor Gopal Krishna Gandhi.

"The CPI-M will tamper with the evidence at Nandigram, where they are planning a fresh bloodbath as also at Khejuri," she said. "I told the Governor that the CPI(M) is preparing a blueprint for another bloodbath at Singur, Nandigram and at adjacent Khejuri."

Banerjee said she expressed gratitude to the Governor for visiting the injured in the March 14 police firing. "I told him that many people were still missing and several bodies remained untraced," she added.

She also alleged that CPI(M) cadres, dressed in police uniforms, were attacking opposition activtists. She, however, refused to comment on today's Calcutta High Court order rejecting a plea for continuation of CBI probe into the March 14 firing incident.
