MALDA, Nov. 11: The leaders of West Bengal College and University Teachers’ Association and the officials of University of Gour Banga have already announced the chief minister's visit in Malda on 15 and 16 November but the administration does not have any information from the CM's office regarding security arrangement here.
The district magistrate Mr Sridhar K Ghosh and the superintendent of police Mr Satyajit Bandyopadhayay are in a dilemma relating to arrangement of security measures before the chief minister's visit. CPI-M party workers at Malda said the CM's office was waiting for the announcement of the by-poll notification at Sujapur assembly segment in Malda, Nandigram in East Midnapore and Paro in Purulia for finalising the CM's visit in Malda.
Though the CEO Mr Debasish Sen reportedly told district administrative officials through video conference that the notification for the by-poll would be announced after 10 November, but there was no indication, CPI-M party sources said.
The registrar of the University of Gour Banga, Mr Tapas Chatterjee said: “We are circulating invitation letters for the foundation stone laying ceremony of the University campus. If the by-poll notification is announced before 16 November the programme would be postponed. We are prepared for any decision”.
It may be noted that the chief minister is scheduled to address the state conference of WEBCUTA at Malda College on 15 November afternoon and on 16 November morning he would lay the foundation stone for a new university.
The CPI-M has also chalked out an alternative plan to organise a political rally on 16 November in Sujapur to campaign for the upcoming by-polls.
According to the district election officials, the commission has hinted that by-polls would be over by 15 December. The officials are expecting the notification to be announced before 16 November.
