Suvendu Adhikari Sends Legal Notice to CM Mamata Over Coal Scam Allegations

  • West Bengal LoP Suvendu Adhikari sent a legal notice to CM Mamata Banerjee regarding her coal scam allegations.
  • Adhikari demands evidence for her claims within 72 hours, threatening civil and criminal defamation proceedings.
  • He stated that Mamata Banerjee's allegations are a "desperate attempt to divert attention" from an ongoing ED investigation.
  • Mamata Banerjee publicly alleged that Union Home Minister Amit Shah and Suvendu Adhikari were involved in the coal scam.
  • The notice calls her statements "reckless, baseless, and wholly unsubstantiated" and politically motivated.

Why It Matters: Suvendu Adhikari legally challenges CM Mamata Banerjee to prove her coal scam allegations or face defamation.
