Abhishek Banerjee questioned in forgery probe

TMC leader Abhishek Banerjee is undergoing a second round of questioning by the India — West Bengal Criminal Investigation Department in connection with an alleged signature forgery case related to the appointment of the Leader of the Opposition in the India — West Bengal Assembly. Another India — Trinamool Congress MLA, Kunal Ghosh, has also been summoned for questioning, with a potential face-to-face interrogation. The probe stems from discrepancies found in signatures on a document submitted by the India — Trinamool Congress in support of Sovandeb Chattopadhyay's nomination for the post. Investigators were reportedly dissatisfied with Abhishek Banerjee's initial responses and are seeking specific documents and clarifications regarding the authenticity of the signatures and the circumstances of the document's preparation.
