He is currently the Chief Advisor to the Chief Minister, Mamata Banerjee
The police have started to investigate the case. Sources from Kolkata Police headquarters said that a complaint has been lodged on this issue and a full-fledged investigation has started to hunt down the accused. Sources further said that "Sonali Chakrabarty received the threat letter via speed post on Tuesday."
“Madam, your husband will be killed and nobody can save the life of your husband,” the threat letter read.
