TMC chief claims agency was trying to glean intelligence on her party's election strategy
The Enforcement Directorate’s (ED) searches on Thursday at the offices of a political strategy firm in Kolkata and New Delhi turned into a shrill political battle with West Bengal chief minister and Trinamool Congress chief Mamata Banerjee claiming the agency tried to glean intelligence on her party's poll strategy and candidates, and the Bharatiya Janata Party, the main opposition in the state, countering that she was shielding the corrupt and interfering in a federal agency's lawful functioning.
The matter has now reached Calcutta High Court, which will hear it on Friday.
