Earlier, in 2024, molestation charges brought against Bose by a woman employee at Raj Bhavan were proved false and baseless after an inquiry by a retired judge.

Speaking to reporters on Sunday, the Governor had said Kalyan's allegation was "inflammatory, explosive and irresponsible."

Bose demanded an unconditional apology from Kalyan or else he would take legal action against the Trinamool Congress MP. The latter threatened to countersue if the Governor took any action against him.

"When a ruling party MP says that arms and ammunition are there inside Raj Bhavan, is he expressing his lack of confidence in the police force of the state?" Bose had asked on Sunday.

“Raj Bhavan has been open since early morning for around 100 people including the public and journalists for inspection and verification of any arms and ammunition stacked within the premises. Already, some people have come, and some are still coming. They can see everything themselves," the constitutional head of the state had said.

The BJP also strongly criticised the Trinamool MP's remarks. BJP MP Jaganath Sarkar said that Kalyan has lost his mental balance. "As he is a member of Parliament, action should be taken against him for such a comment," Sarkar added.
