"Some ill-motivated political parties/persons are trying to create divisions and animosity between different cadres of Kolkata Police and West Bengal Police. I assure that civic volunteers of WBP will also receive Puja bonus of Rs 5,300 like their counterparts in Kolkata Police.


"Also, ASHA workers under the Health and Family Welfare department too will get Puja bonus @ Rs. 5,300/. Happy Puja to my colleagues in the fields," Banerjee posted on X.
