Mamata Banerjee spends Sunday working from residence

Though Sunday is a holiday, West Bengal chief minister Mamata Banerjee spent the day working from her residence and held a meeting with the state PWD and transport minister.

"The chief minister called me. She wanted some information regarding PWD and transport departments," PWD and Transport minister Subroto Bakshi said here.

A huge crowd of supporters and admirers gathered in front of Banerjee's residence at Kalighat, like other days, to have a glimpse of her.

The chief minister did not disappoint them as she came out to meet and talk to them.

Banerjee, who took over as the first woman chief minister of West Bengal on Friday, had worked yesterday too despite it being a state government holiday and held a series of meetings at the state secretariat.
