NEW DELHI: West Bengal chief minister Suvendu Adhikari on Monday said that the Mamata government’s mismanagement had turned the state “practically bankrupt.”Speaking to reporters, Adhikari said that with a BJP government now in place, Bengal had joined all Central schemes and the state would need at least one year to recover from its financial distress.“West Bengal is not in a good financial condition owing to fiscal mismanagement by previous governments. Revenue loss, theft and failure to join Central schemes have turned the state practically bankrupt. We are still in a bad shape and need at least one year to come out of the financial distress,” Adhikari said after disbursing enhanced old-age pensions to beneficiaries.
