Former West Bengal Director General of Police (DGP) Rajeev Kumar has issued a legal notice to Union Minister of State for Education, Sukanta Majumdar, over derogatory comments made against him. Kumar has demanded the immediate removal of defamatory video content from all platforms and a public apology for the harm caused. The legal notice highlights false and malicious statements circulating on social and digital media, accusing Kumar of corruption and involvement in various illegal activities.
In the notice, Kumar emphasizes that the accusations have led to severe humiliation, mental distress, and damage to his professional reputation. He insists that the remarks made by Sukanta Majumdar are baseless and intended to tarnish his character. Kumar has requested an unconditional apology from the Minister within seven days, warning of legal action if the demands are not met promptly.
Responding to the legal notice, Sukanta Majumdar reiterated his stance, implying that Kumar’s reputation is tainted by allegations of file mismanagement and collusion with the Chief Minister. The Minister hinted at further actions to be taken, including potential social media disclosures. He confirmed that he has already replied to Kumar’s letter, indicating a continuation of the dispute between the two parties.
