Today, I chaired an administrative review meeting in Purba Bardhaman to assess the flood situation in the region.
I have directed all Government officials to be present on the ground, personally evaluating the extent of the damage, and taking immediate steps to alleviate the misery of those affected.
Today, I distributed relief materials in Barjora to help the victims of the man-made flood in the region.
I conveyed my concern for their well-being and assured the people of my continued support.
Didi Ki Guarantee: Rushing to the aid of flood-affected victims; being on the ground, overseeing relief efforts
Modi Ki Guarantee: Looking the other way while Bengal suffers from a devastating MAN-MADE FLOOD
The difference is abundantly clear!
This is my second letter to the Hon’ble Prime Minister of India regarding the devastating MAN-MADE flood in South Bengal caused by unprecedented release of water by DVC.
I am happy to share that our Bengal Govt social welfare schemes have again earned UNICEF praise!
At Impact East 2024 conclave, top UNICEF official lauded our schemes like 'Kanyashree' and 'Rupashree' for being crucial in driving the State's social upliftment.
Our social outreach and effectively life-changing welfare programmes thus continue to receive serious international recognition.
Another sickening reminder of the LAWLESSNESS that has become the norm under the DISASTROUS Yogi Raaj! A rape accused, out on bail, ruthlessly gunned down his 17-year-old victim.
Is this @BJP4India's definition of Nari Suraksha? Allowing rapists and criminals to walk free and emboldening them to carry on with their monstrous acts?
Will PM @narendramodi and HM @AmitShah fix accountability on CM @myogiadityanath and demand his resignation? Will troll-in-chief @amitmalviya break his silence?

.@SuvenduWB is only tasked with spreading misinformation!
From using slurs against women to taking hefty amounts of money, there are several videos of him available on the internet.
Will he accept that he's a misogynistic leader who openly indulges in corruption?
Since 2021, Bangla-Birodhi @BJP4Bengal has meted out a stepmotherly treatment to Bengal. Why? Because they've been rejected time and again.
Their latest act of aggression? Releasing 5 lakh cusecs of water from DVC-controlled dams and causing a MAN-MADE FLOOD in Bengal.
SHAME!
I wrote to Hon’ble PM @narendramodi highlighting the devastation caused by the release of 5 lakh cusecs of water from DVC-controlled dams – a scale hitherto unwitnessed.
This MAN-MADE flood, the worst we have witnessed in the lower Damodar since 2009, has severely impacted over 5 million people in Bengal.
Despite repeated warnings, the Centre has ignored the technical, mechanical and managerial failures plaguing DVC. If this gross negligence continues, Bengal will be forced to sever ties with DVC!
While the Prime Minister holds an umbrella over the heads of his creaky, shaky Nitish-Naidu Dependant Alliance partners, Bengal’s people are left abandoned in the floodwaters!
Aisa kyun, @narendramodi ji?
Smt. @MamataOfficial announced her decision to extend housing grants to an additional 1 lakh families, bringing the total to 12.36 lakh families who are set to benefit by the end of this year.
If Bangla-Birodhi @BJP4India-led NDA Govt. is under the impression that they can make vulnerable people suffer by withholding Awas Yojana funds, they should know that Bengal can provide for itself!
I am delighted to share that Baranagar village in Murshidabad district has been selected as the 'Best Tourism Village' in the Agri-Tourism category by the Ministry of Tourism, Government of India.
The award will be presented on World Tourism Day on 27th September.
Let’s continue to nurture and promote the unique treasures of our state for the world to see.
Smt. @MamataOfficial visits the flood affected regions of Panskura.
From assessing the situation to initiating relief work in the region, she took all necessary steps to ensure the safety of the people.
Her commitment is unshakeable in these trying times!
Since day one, I have supported the doctors in their concerns regarding safety and security, and I have always maintained that most of their concerns, barring a few, are valid, sensible and justified. As per the SC's directions and the GoWB’s submission before the SC yesterday, most of the measures for improving their safety and security are in progress, including the installation of CCTV cameras and infrastructural developments in Medical Colleges and Hospitals across West Bengal, which are expected to be completed within 14 days. Additionally, the government has honored their demands for transferring certain top officials in the Health Department and Kolkata Police, as confirmed by the HCM the day before in her media address.
As a gesture of goodwill, the doctors should now consider CALLING OFF THE STRIKE AND WORK COLLABORATIVELY WITH GoWB to serve the people and expedite the implementation of the task force's initiatives to ensure these changes are promptly executed.
Lastly, it is crucial to hold the CBI accountable and ensure that no perpetrators are spared, with swift punishment handed down at the earliest opportunity. The CBI's record speaks for itself: over the past 10 years, they have not completed a single investigation they have undertaken. JUSTICE DELAYED IS JUSTICE DENIED.
#JusticeForRGKar
“I've come here as your elder sister, not as your Chief Minister!”
Smt. @MamataOfficial requests the protesting doctors to resume services as she promises to stand beside them in the quest for JUSTICE!
It is sad and unfortunate that we have lost 29 precious lives due to disruption in health services because of long drawn cease work by junior doctors.
In order to extend a helping hand to the bereaved families, State Government announces a token financial relief of Rs. 2 lakh to family members of each deceased person.
