MP plays role of mediator

Statesman News Service
MALDA, Nov. 30: After the intervention of the Malda MP Mr A H Khan Choudhury, the chairman of English Bazaar Municipality Mr Narendranath Tiwari took over charges as district Intuc president at its office located at Rathbari today.

Though Mr Tiwari got the final approval from the state Intuc president Mr Subrata Mukherjee but he could not take charge due to factional feud. One Mr Nazrul Islam alias Kazi who claimed as president of the district Intuc did not agree to accept Mr Tiwari as president. Mr Islam became working president with the consent of the state president after the murder of then district Intuc president Biswanath Guho.

Today, Mr Tiwari came to office and took the chair of president in presence of the Malda MP amid tight security. There was tension between the two groups and supporters of Mr Tiwari and Mr Islam who assembled there since morning. No untoward incident was reported.

The Malda MP managed the situation tactfully declaring Mr Tiwari as president and Mr Islam as working president of Malda INTUC.

"If we do not maintain unity among the leaders within an organisation, Left as well as CPI-M backed trade union leaders will take opportunity of the situation”, Mr A H Khan Choudhury said.
