Kolkata: On her second day at the secretariat on Saturday, West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee held a series of meetings to get a first-hand knowledge of the state of affairs in the administration.
Banerjee asked the waiting cameramen not to follow her in her daily work, urging them to allow her to work.
``I have to do a lot of work. What is the use of taking so many pictures of me?`` she asked lensmen while entering her office accompanied by city Mayor Sovan Chatterjee.
The new chief minister is understood to have held a meeting with the chief secretary Samar Ghosh.
Meanwhile, the newly-appointed ministers formally took charge and had meetings with their respective secretaries.
Today being a Saturday, the flurry of activity seen in the corridors of the secretariat was unusual as previously it used to be a holiday.
