The CBI chargesheet has given a new dimension to the Nandigram firing controversy by giving a clean chit to the then Left Front government. It contradicts the Calcutta high court's order of 2007 that called the firing "unconstitutional" in a major embarrassment to the Buddhadeb Bhattacharjee government.
Fourteen villagers were shot dead on March 14, 2007. Two days later, the high court said the police firing was "wholly unconstitutional and cannot be justified under any provision of the law" and asked CBI to investigate it. However, the CBI chargesheet, submitted to additional chief judicial magistrate (Haldia) on December 18, 2013, says: "It has been established that the assembly was an unlawful assembly as declared by the executive magistrate and they obstructed public servant in performing legal duty. In this incident as many as 30 police personnel were injured."
