Alapan Bandyopadhyay, Principal Secretary, Municipal Affairs Department telephoned me on Wednesday afternoon asking me whether I'd issued any instructions to Kolkata Municipal Corporation. Of course, I hadn't: it later transpired that someone had fraudulently used my name. I informed the Minister Firhad Hakim when he came to Nagarayan on Thursday afternoon; I pointed out that there were six glaring mistakes proving quite clearly that the letter wasn't by me. He told the press later. Here are two clippings:
(from today's Pratidin).
(from today's Bartamaan)
It was quite scary and I was rather upset. Upset because if there weren't those glaring mistakes, I could be misunderstood easily and I shuddered to think if this'd happened for sensitive allotment issues that I deal with.
