Bengal News | 'Can Be Done In India': Abhishek Banerjee Again Denied Foreign Travel For EyeTreatment
The Calcutta High Court on Wednesday refused the urgent permission to Trinamool Congress MP Abhishek Banerjee to travel abroad for eye treatment, about two weeks
The Calcutta High Court on Wednesday refused the urgent permission to Trinamool Congress MP Abhishek Banerjee to travel abroad for eye treatment, about two weeks after rejecting a similar request. A single bench of Justice Sougata Bhattacharya said it doesn't see the need for 40-year-old Banerjee, who is facing a police case related to alleged intimidatory statements he made during the 2026 West Bengal Assembly election campaign, to leave the country when medical procedures are available in India.
Justice Bhattacharya said it is immaterial where Banerjee, who sustained an eye injury in a 2016 road accident, gets treated, as getting medical intervention is more important. The same bench had rejected Banerjee's plea on July 20, saying there are several reputed eye clinics in Kolkata.
