West Bengal fire department orders vacating the basement and two floors of Abhishek’s office

The controversy over the office of Trinamool Congress leader Abhishek Banerjee at Camac Street is refusing to die down. A day after the office of the Diamond Harbour MP was vandalised by miscreants, the West Bengal Fire Department on Friday (September 4, 2026) ordered that the basement and two floors of a high-rise building be vacated.

“Be it pertinent to mention that Renewal of Fire Safety Certificate (RFSC) for occupancy of the 2B+G+7-storied Business Building at premises no. 9, Abanindranath Tagore Sarani (Camac Street). Kolkata-700017, bearing memo no: IND/FES/20182019/1/37021, dated 10.08.2023, was valid for three years which has expired. In the said RFSC, it was clearly recommended to renew the same before expiry. However, you failed to do so,” the order by the State Fire Department said. The order directed that the said occupancy until and unless the fire safety measures are complied and the RFSC was obtained.
