Murshidabad violence planned by BJP: CM
Terming Prime Minister Narendra Modi as a 'great liar', Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee today said that the violence at Rezinagar in Murshidabad on Wednesday was preplanned by the BJP.
West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on Monday announced that Kalimpong, the hill station that falls under Darjeeling district, will soon become a separate district itself.
She said Mirik in the same district will be upgraded to a sub-division, while an educational hub will be built in the other hill station Kurseong.
"An education hub is coming up in Kurseong. Kalimpong will soon become a district. Mirik will become a sub-division," Banerjee said at the 120th birth anniversary celebrations of revolutionary Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose in Darjeeling.
