No charge against Left cadres fabricated: Hakim

“Law will take its own course. Those involved in Benachapra skeleton recovery case and the Nandigram firing incident would be punished. The Chief Minister has taken up a slew of development projects in Junglemahal and a conspiracy is being hatched to create anarchy in these districts,” Hakim said.
