"But an agency is now probing the matter and everything will come out in the open."
Gandhi also alleged that there was a primary school teacher scam in the state in which 35,000 teachers were hit.
"Guidelines are not implemented. Trinamool men are given jobs, but not the right people who are teachers," he said.
"Bada bada bhashan hota hain magar garibo ka kaam nahi hota hai (Big lectures are given, but no work is done for the poor)," Gandhi alleged.

"Women in Bengal are the worst sufferers in the whole country though the state has a woman Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee. Today, Bengal has emerged the number one state in terms of rape," he said.

"BJP talks about strengthening women. I have seen their posters in Delhi talking about it but there is a photo of one man only. There is no photo of Sushmaji or other BJP women leaders, only of one man," he said.
"BJP workers go to Mangalore and women are beaten up. In Madhaya Pradesh a minister in the assembly says 20,000 women are missing. It is strange that the government does not have a clue where these women have disappeared.
