West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee criticized ministers and bureaucrats for poor civic amenities, questioning if she must personally address the issues. At a state secretariat meeting, Banerjee demanded accountability and performance improvements, highlighting encroachments, illegal activities, and negligence by various officials, ensuring only committed individuals will receive future electoral support.

In an intense meeting at the state secretariat, West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee delivered a scathing critique of the prevailing civic issues across the state. Banerjee questioned whether ministers, MLAs, and bureaucrats expect her to personally resolve problems like poor road conditions and ineffective street lighting.

Banerjee lambasted a minister, a former TMC mayor, and several bureaucrats for their substandard performance. She announced that a review team, including officers from various departments, will evaluate the officials' performance to ensure accountability. Banerjee emphasized that the government would not be tarnished by the actions of a few individuals, demanding that non-performing officials step down.

Highlighting specific cases, Banerjee held Fire and Emergency Services Minister Sujit Bose accountable for encroachment issues and accused former Howrah mayor Rathin Chakraborty of mismanagement. She also called out administrative and police involvement in illicit activities, promising a comprehensive system cleanup before the next elections.
