“If I get a notice from CBI, I'll definitely go” TMC minister Sujit Bose on CBI summons

Kolkata (West Bengal) [India], August 31 (ANI): West Bengal’s Fire Minister and TMC leader, Sujit Bose, was summoned to the CBI office on Thursday in connection with a municipal appointment corruption case. However, he did not go to the CBI office claiming that he had not recieved a summon from the ageny.
The minister instead chose to address a news conference in Kolkata where he stated, "If I get any notice from the CBI, I'll definitely go to the CBI."
He further alleged that some sections of the media want to tarnish his image.
He reiterated, "I repeat again and again that if any agency summons me or gives me notice, I will be there to answer their questions."
The minister has also claimed that there was a political conspiracy to target him and has demanded an investigation into the alleged conspiracy. 
The CBI had summoned fire minister Sujit Bose to its Nizam Palace office at 11 am today for questioning in the ongoing probe into alleged irregularities in municipal appointments between 2014 and 2016. 
The agency summons comes after the Supreme Court rejected the state government’s petition seeking a stay on the Calcutta High Court order for a CBI probe into the alleged scam in municipal hirings.
The agency (CBI and ED) had informed the Calcutta high court that there were links between the civic body recruitment scam and the bribe-for-job scam in the West Bengal school education department in which former education minister Partha Chatterjee has been arrested. 
In June CBI conducted a raid on 16 civic bodies and seized several documents in connection with the case. 
Bose was vice-chairman of South Dum Dum Municipality from 2010 to 2021 when nearly 250 people were recruited. He is the first cabinet minister to be summoned in the case. (ANI)
