Under pressure from opposition after the death of an SFI leader, West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on Wednesday termed the episode as "unfortunate", but evaded a question on whether a judicial probe would be ordered as demanded by the CPI-M. "Any death is unfortunate.
This is also unfortunate. I will not say anything more than this," Banerjee told reporters here outside the state-run SSKM hospital where SFI leader Sudipta Gupta's body was kept. She said this in response to a media query that whether the state government would order a judicial inquiry into the death as demanded by opposition CPI-M.
