Will never accept this 'Didi Giri': West Bengal Governor Ananda Bose

Kolkata (West Bengal) [India], May 6 : Amid allegations of sexual harassment against West Bengal Governor CV Ananda Bose, the constitutional head of state took exception from his "apolitical" approach and said that Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee practices "dirty politics". He also warned that he would not accept her "Didigiri".
"Now because of the humiliating remarks which she has made against me, against truth, I am forced to tell you that Mamata Banerjee as a politician, her politics is dirty. Still, I pray to God to save her. But that is a difficult responsibility even for God. I will never accept this 'Didi Giri' on the distinguished office of the Governor," Governor Bose said speaking to reporters on Monday.
Alleging that the Chief Minister has "dragged" him into politics, the Governor said that he has always considered Mamata Banerjee to be a good individual and had earlier on several occasions refused to comment on her politics.
"Now I am very sorry that the Chief Minister has dragged me into politics, especially at a time when the elections are going on...I told a lot of good works about the individual, Mamata Banerjee. I stick to that. I spoke about the Chief Minister whom I always called my constitutional colleague. I stick to that. When I was asked repeatedly to speak to speak about the politics of Mamata Banerjee I always took the stand that her politics is not my cup of tea. I refused to comment on that," Bose said.
Speaking about his constitutional role, Bose said, "The Governor is supposed to stay away from politics. Governor is an apolitical post. To the best of my conscience, I have tried to be above politics. Ask any political party. They all had access to me and publicly they have acknowledged that, including the leaders of the ruling party."
Earlier on Sunday, Bose took to his official X handle and said that no inquiry can be conducted against a Governor during their term of office regarding molestation charges levelled against him.
Posting on X, the West Bengal Governor said that Article 361(2) and (3) of the Constitution of India protects the President, Governors and Rajpramukhs.
The post reads, "No criminal proceedings whatsoever shall be instituted or continued against the President, or the Governor of a State, in any court during his term of office and no process for the arrest or imprisonment of the President, or the Governor of a State, shall issue from any court during his term of office."
He added further, "It is clear that the State machinery cannot set in motion any sort of criminal proceedings, whatsoever, against the Governor."
Bose also wrote to Raj Bhavan staff and asked them to ignore any communication from the police regarding the matter.
The Trinamool Congress and Bose are in a standoff over a sexual harassment case that the TMC has flagged against him. Bose has denied the allegations saying 'Truth Will Triumph'.
