Kolkata, Aug 9 - Continuing its attack on West Bengal Governor Gopalkrishna Gandhi, the state's ruling communists Sunday called him 'partial' in his remarks on important political issues.
'I am not saying softly that he has not been impartial. I am clearly saying he (Gopalkrishna Gandhi) has been quite biased and passed one-sided comments several times on important political issues,' Communist Party of India-Marxist (CPI-M) central committee member Shyamal Chakrabroty told reporters here.
'Gandhi made no comment when many of our cadres were killed and hundreds driven out of their homes by Trinamool Congress, Maoists and Bhumi Uchched Pratirodh Committee (Anti-Land Acquisition Committee) activists during spiralling violence in Nandigram for more than a year,' he said.
'Gandhi did not even condemn these violent acts carried out by the opposition parties,' he said.
Two days ago, the state's ruling CPI-M headed Left Front had flayed the governor for his hard-hitting statement on political violence in the state and asked him to 'exhibit more apparent neutrality' while making public statements.
