Another face-off between the Centre and Mamata Banerjee-led West Bengal government seems in the offing as the Defence Ministry has rejected the tableau for this year’s Republic Day Parade Another face-off between the Centre and Mamata Banerjee-led West Bengal government seems in the offing as the Ministry of Defence has rejected the state’s tableau for this year’s Republic Day Parade. Twenty-two proposals, including 16 from states and Union Territories and six from central ministries — out of a total 56 — have been shortlisted for this Republic Day parade, the ministry on Wednesday said. “The tableau proposal of the West Bengal government was not taken forward for further consideration by the Expert Committee after deliberations in the second meeting.” Seeking to highlight that the move to reject the Opposition-ruled state’s tableau wasn’t political, the ministry clarified that it had selected the West Bengal’s proposal for the last year’s parade through the same mechanism. “It is pertinent to mention here that the tableau of the Government of West Bengal was shortlisted for participation in the Republic Day Parade 2019 as an outcome of the same process,” it added.
