The CPI(M)바카라s West Bengal State Committee has recommended punishment for 39-year-old party MP Ritabrata Banerjee for his 바카라lavish life style바카라, a move that comes after suspending him in June on the same grounds.
The Indian Express that the decision to punish Banerjee was taken at the end of CPM바카라s two-day state committee meeting of that concluded on Tuesday. The party has asserted that Banerjee, currently a Rajya Sabha MP and a former general secretary of CPI(M)바카라s student wing SFI, needs 바카라rectification바카라, the report adds.
Banerjee바카라s life style became a point of contention in February this year after a member of CPIM)바카라s youth wing, DYFI, questioned him on Facebook over a picture Banerjee posted on social media sporting an Apple watch and a Mont Blanc Pen. The DYFI member asked how a communist leader can sport such expensive gadgets. Banerjee then reacted to it by allegedly writing to the DYFI member바카라s employer demanding disciplinary action against him.
The reaction oscillated between disbelief of the party cadres not in the know, to a sense of 바카라just desert바카라 as one leader called it, has now settled into a kind of decisive divide with party colleagues polarised. And that includes another celebrated former comrade who had, back in June 2008, met a similar fate to that of Banerjee, except much worse.
In an interview to Outlook, his only one since the suspension of Banerjee, former Lok Sabha Speaker Somnath Chatterjee said, 바카라I am not happy at all with what has happened to Ritabrata. He is an asset to the party. His performance has been stellar. He is articulate and a good worker who has done well to represent his party at the national stage. He is young and dynamic. If the party felt that he needed to be disciplined, it could have been dealt with internally. After suspension, the next step is expulsion so it does not bode well for the party to lose someone like him who could have been cultivated as the future of the party. However since I am no longer a part of the CPI(M) my views do not represent the party바카라s.바카라
Earlier, Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan had faced similar after pictures of a big house, allegedly belonging to him, went viral on internet. However, the party had dismissed it as propaganda by rivals.The party had even taken action against a few members who had allegedly set out to see the house. The controversy was put to rest only after media released pictures of Vijayan's original house.
