PM Modi knew BJP would arrange someone to 'eat up' 25k+ jobs: Mamata Banerjee on Calcutta HC’s order on SSC ‘scam’
High Court judgment, hinting at a conspiracy. Mamata Banerjee also said that the High Court was wrong to cancel all the job appointments at once without looking into the details of each individual case.
Things took a turn for worse when Amarnath Sakha, the Bharatiya Janata Party's (BJP) Onda MLA, claimed that more people would lose jobs in Bengal. "By April 30, you'll see 59,000 people will lose their jobs," he claimed.
Leveraging this, the CM Banerjee remarked, "They are even trying to control the court! “I have no complaints against the court. I have come to speak about the people, about voting.
When people do not receive justice, they turn to the courts. What will people do if the BJP closes the doors to justice?" Anandabazar quoted the chief minister as saying.
Mamata reiterated her support for the people and families affected by the HC order.
The Calcutta High Court had instructed the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI), on April 22, to carry out additional investigations into the irregularities related to the 2016 selection process for school posts in West Bengal, known as the SSC scam. Over 23 lakh candidates appeared for the State Level Selection Test (SLST) in 2016 for 24,640 vacant posts and 25,753 appointment letters were issued.Milestone Alert!
