The relationship between West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee and Governor Jagdeep Dhankhar has often made it to the headlines for being less than amicable. From calling Dhankar a "BJP agent" to TMC workers showing him black flags, the ruling party in Bengal has long made their disapproval of the former lawyer evident. On Monday, Banerjee went a step further by blocking him on Twitter.
Claiming that she was "disturbed" by his regular posts against her government on the microblogging platform, Banerjee on Monday announced that she had indeed blocked his profile on Twitter. Addressing the media, Banerjee also said that Dhankhar has threatened the chief secretary and the director general of police on several occasions.
