Trinamool Congress (TMC) leader Kakoli Ghosh has written to External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar, demanding a thorough investigation into the alleged links of former TMC Rajya Sabha MP Imran with extremist groups. In her letter, Ghosh expressed serious concerns over the former MP's reported associations, which she claimed could pose a threat to national security.
Allegations Against Former MP
Ghosh highlighted that Imran, who served as a Rajya Sabha member from West Bengal, has been suspected of having connections with organizations that are known for promoting radical ideologies. She urged the Ministry of External Affairs to probe these links and take appropriate action if the allegations are substantiated.
Call for Action
The TMC leader emphasized that such connections, if proven true, would be a grave concern not only for the state but for the entire country. She requested the EAM to initiate a detailed inquiry and ensure that any individuals or groups involved in anti-national activities are dealt with strictly according to the law.
Imran, a former MP from the ruling party in West Bengal, has been in the news recently for his controversial statements and alleged proximity to certain radical elements. However, he has denied all allegations, calling them politically motivated.
The letter has sparked a debate within political circles, with some supporting Ghosh's demand for a probe while others view it as an internal party matter. The External Affairs Ministry is yet to respond formally to the request.
