West Bengal Governor Jagdeep Dhankhar on Wednesday accused senior administration officials of North and South 24 Parganas districts of having "worked to frustrate" the object of his recent visit there, terming it as an act of "total non-cooperation".
Asserting that he would be undeterred in his pursuit of constitutional obligation, he called on "enlightened academicians, politicians and activists" to reflect on "worrisome" governance issues.
"The District Administration top was not there and worked to frustrate the object of visit. Total non- cooperation! Sad!" Dhankhar said in a series of tweets.
He said that as West Bengal Governor, he was in "pain and concern" about the "non-cooperation" by top district administration officials.
Terming the absence of senior officials of North 24 Parganas as "conspicuous" during his visit to Dhamakhali in the district on Tuesday, the Governor said, "They failed to invite local MP, MLA, and local Panchayat leaders. Sad!!"
