Birbhum's strongman and domineering Trinamool leader Anubrata Mandal , arrested in Cattle Smuggling Case, was also involved in the business of converting black money into white under the guise of Kali Puja. ! The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) suspects this. Therefore, the Central Investigation Agency is eyeing 570 Tola of gold, which is worn during Kali Puja to the idol of Maa Kali.
Anubrata Mandal is a devotee of Kali and Shiva
Anubrata Mandal, which describes itself as a devotee of Kali and Shiva, organizes grand Kali Puja . The most important thing about Kali Puja held every year in the party office of Trinamool Congress (TMC) in Bolpur is the adornment of Maa Kali with gold ornaments. The weight of the gold jewelery offered on the idol of the mother increases from year to year..
Gold jewelery changed from 160 tola to 560 tola in 5 years
In the year 2016, a total of 160 gold ornaments were offered on the statue. In the year 2019, it increased to 260 full. This year 32 gold ornaments were attached. During Kali Puja in the year 2020, Kesto Da (Anubrata Mondal @ Keshto Da) offered gold ornaments of 360-370 full on the idol of Maa Kali. In the year 2021, the weight of gold jewelery increased to 560-570 tola.
The value of gold jewelery is around Rs 3 crore
The market value of these ornaments is more than Rs 3 crore. Anubrata Mandal decorates the idol of Maa Kali with their own hands every year. However, due to the death of mother and wife in 2019 and 2020, Kesto da Maa could not adorn the idol of Kali with jewellery. Saw everything from outside.
Armed police forces are deployed to protect gold ornaments
A large number of security forces are deployed in the puja pandal to protect the ornaments of the idol of Maa Kali. During Kali Puja last year, when journalists questioned Kesto da about the jewellery, he said that the devotees are pleased. The devotees of the mother go by giving them ornaments. Everything is the influence of the mother.
Why does so much gold climb in the pandal of Anubrata?
After the arrest of Anubrata Mandal, the CBI has now started investigation into the gold ornaments offered on the statue. After all, who is such a devotee, who comes to offer gold ornaments in such a large quantity in the puja pandal. Why so many ornaments are offered in just one puja pandal?
CBI suspects links of cow smuggling and black business of coal
The CBI (Central Bureau of Investigation) says that there is also a Tarapith (Shaktipeeth) temple in this district, but there has never been an offering of so many ornaments there. Every year in the Kali temple of Anubrata, the weight of the gold ornament gets doubled directly. CBI has started looking for answers to all these questions. CBI suspects that even behind these gold ornaments there is no link of cow smuggling or black business of coal?
