"The governor criticised the state administration for failing to attach the technical report along with the Aparajita Bill. As per the rule, it is mandatory for the state government to send the technical report before a decision is taken on giving assent to the Bill," a Raj Bhavan official told news agency PTI. The source noted that the governor believes that Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee was threatening a dharna "only to hoodwink the people of West Bengal as she is also fully well aware that similar Bills are pending with the President of India."
