Kolkata: Refraining from commenting on the resignation of state Governor M K Narayanan, West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee today said that Narayanan was officially leaving on July 4.
“As far as I know he is officially leaving on July 4,” Banerjee told reporters.

Asked to react on the circumstances under which Narayanan resigned, Banerjee said,” This is a constitutional post.
I won't say anything about it now.” Asked if the state government will accord Narayanan a farewell, Banerjee said,” I don't believe in giving farewell.
I believe in welcoming a person.”
