"It (KKR team's victory) happened after they attempted IPL 4-5 times. That means change and that is 'poriborton'. I am not talking of the government," Narayanan told a local TV channel.
"It (KKR victory) is certainly a matter of change," he said, adding his comments had "nothing to do with any particular government."
Yesterday, during the felicitation function at Eden Gardens, the governor had lauded Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee saying 'true poribortan' has now been ushered into West Bengal.
CPI-M leader Shyamal Chakraborty criticised Narayanan alleging his comments were political.
"Everyone heard the governor's comments. We cannot accept any excuse. It was a purely political comment," the state CITU leader said.
