PATNA, Jan. 17 -- Bihar BJP president Sanjay Saraogi, Patna Sahib MP and former Union minister Ravi Shankar Prasad, along with other party leaders, on Friday condemned what they termed the violation of constitutional norms in West Bengal. Addressing a press conference at the BJP state office, Ravi Shankar Prasad referred to the Supreme Court's observations during the hearing on the alleged attempt by the West Bengal government to obstruct Enforcement Directorate (ED) officials from conducting an investigation. He said the court's remarks had raised serious questions about the conduct of the state government. Condemning the incident, Prasad said the ED had informed the court that suspicious evidence of nearly Rs.20 crore linked to money laundering in the coal scam was found at the office of IPAC, making an investigation necessary. The coal scam, he added, was estimated to be worth around Rs.3,000 crore. He alleged that during the investigation, chief minister Mamata Banerjee reached the spot and left with a file, while senior police officers were also seen taking away documents. "Such a scene was witnessed by everyone present," he said, adding that the West Bengal DGP was also there. He further claimed that to stall the hearing in the high court, the TMC's legal cell had issued notices to party members, a fact that was also conveyed to the Supreme Court. Prasad asserted that the ED raid was not conducted at the chief minister's residence, the TMC office or any leader's home, but at the office of a private company, IPAC. "This is perhaps the first time in independent India that a chief minister rushed in and took away a file from an agency investigating corruption," he alleged. BJP state president Sanjay Sarawagi told mediapersons that the apex court's observations had exposed the reality of the Mamata Banerjee government, alleging a breakdown of law and order and interference in police investigations. "The Supreme Court has clearly indicated that anarchy would prevail in such circumstances. Its observations reflect the grim law and order situation in Bengal. The chief minister herself interfering in an ongoing investigation and taking away files shows what kind of chaotic situation exists there," he said....
