A group of teachers who lost their jobs following the Supreme Court’s recent ruling on the WBSSC recruitment scam visited former India captain Sourav Ganguly’s residence in Kolkata on Thursday, inviting him to join a march to the West Bengal state secretariat.
However, according to a report by ABP Ananda, the 52-year-old turned down their invitation. The teachers, who had gathered to rally for justice, were hopeful of Ganguly’s support for the march scheduled on April 21. Despite their hopes, Ganguly responded with a clear message: "Please don't involve me in politics."
