Bengal governor meets PM Modi in backdrop of political violence, terms it ‘courtesy call’

PTI, Jun 10, 2019, 3:16 PM IST

New Delhi: West Bengal Governor Keshari Nath Tripathi met Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday amid incidents of political violence in the state over which the Home Ministry has issued an advisory to the state government.

Tripathi told reporters before the meeting that it was a courtesy call as he had not called the prime minister since he took over for the second term.

The state’s ruling Trinamool Congress and the BJP have been trading charges over political violence in the state, with the TMC terming the MHA advisory as a conspiracy against its dispensation.
