Amid the high-profile arrest of Shah Rukh Khan’s son Aryan Khan, West Bengal Congress president Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury hit out at Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee, questioning her ‘stoic silence’ on the issue.
Chowdhury alleged that the TMC supremo, who was otherwise very outspoken on every issue was keeping silent in a ‘desperate attempt to please her friends in the BJP.’ Highlighting Mamata’s relationship with SRK, the senior Congress leader stated that not only was the Bollywood superstar the brand ambassador of West Bengal but was also referred to by Banerjee as her ‘brother.’
Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury said, “Our Chief Minister speaks on every topic, but she has maintained a stoic silence on the issue of the arrest of Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan’s son Aryan Khan. Shah Rukh Khan is the brand ambassador of West Bengal. Mamata Banerjee calls him her brother. Then why is she silent on the issue? It seems she is desperate to please her friends in the BJP.”
