Mamata Banerjee’s lawyer sends a legal notice to hospitals and seeks related clarification after allegations connected to her 2021 leg injury and the disclosure of her medical records. The move follows claims by West Bengal chief minister Suvendu Adhikari, who questions the circumstances of her injury during the 2021 assembly election period when she campaigned from a wheelchair. The notice argues that her medical information was shared without authorisation and asks how the records came to be revealed.
Adhikari, in response, warns Banerjee not to pursue the issue further. He says additional documents could be made public if necessary, mentioning that reports such as X-ray and MRI findings may be disclosed. The matter is framed by both sides within an ongoing political dispute, with the hospital and health administration becoming focal points over questions of consent, access, and release of medical information.
