Controversy

edit

A woman journalist makes sensational allegation against Bhattacharya. A molestation complaint has been filed against him at Baranagar police station.[6] The female journalist claimed that she went to Tanmoy Bhattacharya's house for an interview on 27 October 2024, then Bhattacharya molested her. The female journalist also participated in Facebook Live. The complaining journalist said, that while taking interview, he literally sat on her lap.[7][8] The State committee of CPI(M) suspended Bhattacharya for such allegation of outraging the modesty and misbehaviour with woman journalist.[9][10]
