Burdawan (July 05,2023) : TMC youth leader Sayani Ghosh's lawyer appeared in the Enforcement Directorate (ED) office in Kolkata on Wednesday, but her presence was not confirmed. Ghosh was summoned by the ED to appear for questioning in connection with an investigation into alleged financial irregularities. However, she did not appear in person, and her lawyer said that she was unable to do so due to prior commitments.

The ED is probing allegations that Ghosh received illegal funds from a shell company during the 2021 West Bengal assembly elections. Ghosh has denied the allegations. The ED's move to summon Ghosh has been seen as a major escalation in the investigation. It is the first time that a top TMC leader has been summoned by the agency in connection with the case. The case is likely to have major political implications in West Bengal. The TMC is the ruling party in the state, and Ghosh is a popular leader. Her questioning by the ED could damage the TMC's image.
