The Calcutta High Court had sought a response from the Mamta government on the situation in the violence affected Murshidabad. Now the state government has released a report on this and has given information about the situation in Murshidabad.

In West Bengal, Leader of Opposition Shubhendu Adhikari had filed a petition in the Kolkata High Court. He claimed that the bomb blasts occurred during communal riots in the Muslim -dominated district. A division bench of Justice Samen Sen and Justice Raja Basu Chaudhary was hearing this petition. In the report released by the Mamta government, the situation of law and order in Murshidabad district is under control.

Let me tell you that after the violence in Murshidabad, many families from the district were forced to migrate.

Investigation should be handed over to NIA

Shubhendu Officer, in his petition, requested the court to hand over the investigation to the National Investigation Agency (NIA). At the same time, the lawyer appearing with the Center requested before the court that the deployment of CAPF (Central Armed Police Force) in Murshidabad should be extended for some time in view of the sensitivity of the ground situation of the district.
