The All India Trinamool Congress leadership in West Bengal has begun distributing ‘Unnayoner Panchali’, the state government’s 15-year report card, to notable figures across the state as part of their outreach program. State Minister Shashi Panja and party MP Sharmila Sarkar handed over the report card and a letter from Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee to Professor Dr. Manimoy Bandyopadhyay, acknowledging his contributions to public healthcare in West Bengal.
Another Trinamool Congress MP, Nadimul Haque, met renowned music composer Indraadip Dasgupta and presented him with the ‘Unnayoner Panchali’ box along with the Chief Minister’s letter, reflecting on the state’s progress over the past 15 years. Reportedly, around 200 personalities from diverse fields such as arts, films, sports, and academia will be contacted by the Trinamool leadership ahead of the upcoming state Assembly elections.
Trinamool Congress spokesperson Arup Chakraborty emphasized the government’s commitment to transparency, stating that the Mamata Banerjee administration aims to showcase its governance achievements over the last 15 years. Chakraborty highlighted the government’s efforts in improving people’s lives through various schemes, underscoring the party’s dedication to openness and accountability.
Describing the ‘Unnayoner Panchali’ as akin to a white paper released by the state government, Chakraborty contrasted Trinamool Congress’s approach with that of the BJP, accusing the latter of concealing facts and avoiding accountability. He emphasized that the Trinamool Congress stands for truthfulness and openness, facing questions from the public and media with honesty and transparency, unlike other parties.
