Bengal government to launch fresh probe into Mamata's 'leg injury' claims during 2021 polls: Suvendu
Once the model code of conduct is lifted after October 9, we will initiate a fresh probe into this false propaganda, says West Bengal Chief Minister Suvendu Adhikari
The West Bengal government plans to conduct a new investigation into Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee's claim of a leg injury during the 2021 Assembly poll campaign, announced Chief Minister Suvendu Adhikari on October 3, 2026. Adhikari presented a medical report from the Bangur Institute of Neurosciences, dated March 11, 2021, which showed no evidence of a fracture in Banerjee's leg.
He claimed the incident had been used to mislead people in the state and the State CID is already probing the matter. The fresh probe will commence after the Assembly by-elections.
