Former Indian cricket captain Sourav Ganguly has been named the brand ambassador of West Bengal by Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee. “We must be positive and constructive,” Mamata Banerjee said when she handed over the certificate to Sourav Ganguly.
“Sourav Ganguly is a very popular figure in our state and can inspire and work for our young generations in a big way. I want to involve him as the brand ambassador of Bengal,” Mamata Didi said, “Our national anthem, which was written by Rabindra Nath Tagore, says that we are all together. We (the TMC government) don’t raise artificial walls between people. We are one from the heart despite being home to people from multiple cultures and ethnicities”.
Thanking the Chief Minister, Sourav Ganguly invited the industrialists to make big-ticket investments in the state. According to him, this has emerged as one of the most attractive investment destinations in the country. He was once the captain of the Indian national cricket team.
