Adhikari calls Banerjee's Oxford visit 'fake' in West Bengal

thehindu.com

West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee is set to speak at Kellogg College, part of Oxford University, on March 27. Opposition leader Suvendu Adhikari claims the event is misleadingly presented as an Oxford University discussion, calling it "fake." Adhikari shared a letter from an RTI activist questioning the legitimacy of the visit. The university responded that it does not maintain a central log of events, which has led to further debate about the event's authenticity. In response, Trinamool Congress spokesperson Kunal Ghosh defended Banerjee, stating that the opposition's claims are unfounded. The TMC has promoted the visit as a significant achievement for West Bengal.
