Those who indulge in conflicts with regional parties will wash out: WB CM
Bengaluru, May 23: West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee cautioned that those who indulge in conflicts with regional parties would be washed out.
After holding a discussion with Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu at Kumara Krupa Guest House here on Wednesday, she reacted to the media persons about the statement of BJP national president Amit Shah that just because of the leaders of the regional parties have come together, the Third Front could not do anything in the country. “Let Amith Shah speak anything about regional parties. We will not worry about it. We have placed our thoughts. We will work on bringing all regional parties together. If the regional parties became stronger, a stable and strong administration can be given in the country. Meeting with Naidu has given me a good opportunity to discuss this issue”, she added.
All regional parties in the country have been uniting. Through regional parties, 2019 Lok Sabha election would witness moral politics in the country. “Let the Congress do its work. We will do our work. It is a good development that the Congress has come forward to extend its support to form a coalition government headed by a regional party. Though Congress is an independent party, we have come here to extend our support to Kumaraswamy who is heading the coalition government”, she added.
DMK leader MK Stalin is not attended the swearing in programme due to some issues in Tamil Nadu. She has come to Bengaluru to attend the programme, she added.
AP Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu said that Kumaraswamy taking oath as the new CM of Karnataka is a good development. All regional parties have been extending their support to Kumaraswamy. It is a good platform to show the strength of the regional parties. Both himself and Mamata Banerjee have been toiling to strengthen the regional parties, he added.

EY’s Rajiv Memani regrets absence at employee's funeral amid work culture criticism
New Delhi: Rajiv Memani, the chairperson of Ernst and Young India, expressed sadness that no one from the firm attended the employee's funeral, saying it was "alien to our culture" and that the individual had supposedly died from extreme work pressure. Memani, who has been subject to intense criticism on social media for what he perceives to be a hostile work environment, expressed his profound sadness for the untimely death of Anna Sebastian Perayil in a post on LinkedIn.
"Although nothing can completely fill the gap in the family's lives, I have sent them my sincerest sympathies. I sincerely apologize for our absence from Anna's burial. This is not at all representative of our culture. Memani said, "It has never happened before and it won't happen again." He also emphasized that he would not stop until the objective of "nurturing a harmonious workplace" was achieved.
Clarifying further he said, “Creating a healthy work environment has always been very important to us, and we place the utmost value on our employees' well-being."I want to reaffirm that our people's welfare is my first priority, and I will personally fight for this goal.”
On July 20, Anna Sebastian Perayil, an employee of E&Y since March, passed away. This week, the incident came to light due to the widespread distribution of her mother Anita Augustine's open letter to the corporation, in which she claimed that Anna gave in to "work pressure".
Augustine stated that her daughter's funeral was attended by no one from the company in question. "I contacted her managers following her burial, but I didn't hear back. In the letter, she said, "How can a company that claims to uphold human rights and values fail to stand by one of its own in their last moments?"
As a result of his denial that “work pressure" was the cause of the Pune woman's death, Memani came under fire on social media, according to an Indian Express article.
The Center started looking into what happened before Anna passed away as the matter escalated in urgency. Shobha Karandlaje, the minister of state for labor, announced on Thursday that a comprehensive inquiry into the claims of a hazardous and exploitative workplace was under progress.
