New Delhi: BJP general secretary Kailash Vijayvargiya on Tuesday accused the Mamata Banerjee-led government in West Bengal of not following the Indian Constitution. He made the comments after the District Magistrate (DM) of North 24 Parganas Chaitali Chakrabarti asked West Bengal Governor Jagdeep Dhankhar to seek permission from the state government in order to hold a meeting with district officials.

"The West Bengal government is Mamata Banerjee's government. It does not follow the Constitution. If the Governor of the state has to take permission it implies that Mamata Ji's law works in West Bengal and not the country's law," Vijayvargiya told ANI. The meeting was scheduled to be held at the Zilla Parishad Guest House in Dhamakhali of North 24 Parganas district today.
