Abhishek Banerjee Arrested: ED arrests Abhishek aide after 12-hour questioning
Here we are going to share some appalling news with you. The Enforcement Directorate (ED) recently arrested Vinay Mishra, an aide of Trinamool Congress MP Abhishek Banerjee, in connection with the school jobs scam. Mishra was arrested after a 12-hour-long interrogation by the ED. The school jobs scam refers to the illegal collection of money from candidates in exchange for jobs in government-run schools in West Bengal. The investigation into the scam began several years, and multiple arrests have been made so far.

According to the ED inquiry, Mishra played a key role in the scam and was instrumental in collecting money from candidates on behalf of the accused. The agency has alleged that Mishra used his political connections to facilitate the scam and also used a network of middlemen to reach out to candidates. Mishra’s arrest has sparked a political row in West Bengal, with the Trinamool Congress accusing the ruling BJP of using central agencies to target opposition leaders.
Trinamool Congress MP Derek O’Brien called the arrest a “political witch-hunt” and accused the BJP of trying to harass Abhishek Banerjee, who is the nephew of West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee. The BJP, however, has denied the allegations and accused the Trinamool Congress of trying to protect corrupt leaders. The party has also demanded a thorough investigation into the scam and urged the people of West Bengal to support the fight against corruption.
The school jobs scam is just one of the many corruption cases that have come to light in West Bengal in recent years. The state has been in the news, which involved illegal chit-fund schemes that duped millions of investors. The Trinamool Congress has been accused of shielding those involved in these scams, and the BJP has promised to bring the culprits to justice if it comes to power in the state.
The use of political connections to secure government jobs and contracts is a common practice in many parts of the country, and it is often the poor and disadvantaged who suffer the most from such corruption. The arrest of Vinay Mishra should serve as a warning to those who think they can get away with corruption by using political connections. It is time for India to take a strong stand against corruption and ensure that those who break the law are held accountable, regardless of their political affiliation. We are requesting, if you are also a victim of any scam, please, immediately register your complaint with your nearest police stations. Stay tuned to us.
