Narada News reveals 2nd part of sting operation, more TMC leaders shown taking bribes

Kolkata, Mar 21 (IBNS): News portal- Narada News- on Monday released another sting operation footage, where Trinamool Congress (TMC) Lok Sabha MP from Arambag constituency Aparupa Poddar and former TMC students' leader Shankudeb Panda were exposed while allegedly taking bribes.
In the sting footage it was shown that TMC MP Aparupa Poddar took 3 lakh rupees as bribe and former TMCP president Shankudeb Panda demanded stake in the business, instead of taking bribe.
 
However, Aparupa Poddar claimed that she never took money from anyone as bribe and the video footage was doctored. Shankudeb Panda could not be connected over telephone.
 
Earlier on Mar 14, Narada News released the first part of its sting operation's video, where West Bengal's ruling TMC leaders or officials or lawmakers, including MH Ahmed Mirza (senior police officer), Mukul Roy, Subrata Mukherjee, Sultan Ahmed, Suvendhu Adhikari,  Kakoli Ghosh Dastidar, Prasoon Banerjee, Sovon Chatterjee, Madan Mitra, Iqbal Ahmed and Farhad Hakim, were shown taking bribes.
 
TMC leaderships, however, claimed that the entire video was doctored and oppositions' conspiracy before the Bengal assembly polls.
