Supreme Court’s ruling on West Bengal teacher recruitment
scam exposes the deep-rooted corruption in TMC government
West Bengal BJP State President & Union Minister Dr. Sukanta Majumdar and BJP National Spokesperson Dr. Sambit Patra jointly addressed a press conference at the BJP headquarters in New Delhi on 04 April 2025. During the conference, they strongly condemned CM Mamata Banerjee for rejecting the Supreme Court’s observations on the West Bengal teacher recruitment scam and opposing the court’s verdict. Dr. Patra, citing moral grounds, demanded Mamata Banerjee’s resignation and asserted that the people of Bengal must stand together against her autocratic, Taliban-like rule.
Dr. Patra said historic decisions are being made under the Modi government, with parliamentary sessions running through the night. The issue being addressed in today’s press conference has been relentlessly fought for on the ground by West Bengal BJP President and Union Minister Shri Sukanta Majumdar, who has also appealed for justice. Everyone is well aware of the situation in Bengal, the corruption, the oppression under Mamata Didi’s rule. Today, not just India but the entire world is witnessing it.
Union Minister Dr. Sukanta Majumdar stated that following the Supreme Court’s ruling, Mamata Banerjee appeared before the media and began her blame game, targeting everyone, accusing CPM leaders, and even questioning the judiciary and honourable judges. Through her remarks, she diminished the dignity of the Supreme Court, which could be considered contempt of court. TMC leaders who accepted bribes in exchange for jobs were protected by Mamata Banerjee. In schools where only 1,000 teachers were required, an additional 1,500 positions were created through a Cabinet decision, not to improve education but to safeguard those who had obtained jobs illegally. This was a calculated move involving the entire Cabinet.
The BJP demands that since the Cabinet collectively decided to shield those involved in corruption, the Chief Minister and all responsible ministers should face legal
