Sarkar today was in a blood donation camp organized by CPI-M’s Youth Wings and in a tricky question, while replying, he said, “In a blood donation camp, I will not react in other issues except blood donation, but just like recently a group of journalists requested me for my interview and I tried to answer them as per my best knowledge but, in same way, all journalists are welcome for my interviewâ€.Thus, Manik Sarkar has finally reacted on his Media-Lobbying controversy.
Sarkar is not alone in the controversy, but the incumbent Chief Minister Biplab Deb was too in controversy after a group of media and media associations alleged that many journalists were insulted in Chief Minister’s press conference at his quarter.
