West Bengal chief minister Mamata Banerjee on Friday said that a section of government employees owing allegiance to the CPI(M) were not only constantly creating hurdles in the smooth functioning of the administration but were also trying to defame her. “You must understand that all of them (govt employees) are not our people. So, whenever in a government hospital, an employee refuses to give you medicines saying that the government has not provided them, you should know that he is a CPI(M) man. Or if you visit a DM office for some work and some government personnel tells you not to bother him then you should know that he is a CPI(M) man,” she said.
The chief minister was addressing a rally at Jagulia in Nadia district. “Do not raise hands on them or beat them up but tell them firmly that they had been appointed to provide service to the poor and they must perform their duty,” she added. Ms Banerjee elaborated that many of the CPI(M) supporters were holding government jobs and they could not be sacked. “I do not even want to remove them but I want them to work without doing any mischief. But some of them are constantly doing mischief,” she added.

Another dental council member held for graft
Chennai, Jan. 18: The CBI on Friday arrested another member of the Dental Council of India (DCI) here in connection with the alleged bribe paid by a private dental college in Tamil Nadu for securing approval for a new course, taking the total number of detentions in the case to five.
Tamil Nadu Dental Association president and a member of Dental Council of India, Gunaseelan Rajan was arrested after a day-long grilling by the CBI, sources said on Friday.
The investigating agency on January 7 had arrested Dental Council of India member Dr S. Murukesan for allegedly demanding `1 crore as bribe and accepting `25 lakhs as advance for granting approval for a post-graduate course by the college.
Three functionaries of the Melmaruvathur-based Adhiparasakthi Dental College and Hospital were also arrested from the Dental Council of India member’s dental clinic here for allegedly offering the illegal gratification. In a related development, the Central Bureau of Investigation court on Friday dismissed the bail plea of Murukesan and the three others — K. Ramabadran, R. Karunanidhi and T. Palani. The arrest of Dr Murukesan followed a surprise check by the Central Bureau of Investigation at his clinic following “credible” information.
