Kolkata: The Enforcement Directorate (ED) has summoned Trinamool Congress national General Secretary Abhishek Banerjee to appear before its investigative officials at the CGO Complex, Salt Lake in the city on November 9 in connection with the alleged West Bengal school jobs scam, official sources said on Wednesday.

Banerjee, the Diamond Harbour Lok Sabha member and nephew of Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee, had skipped the last summons on October 9 in the same case, which is being probed by the federal agency following an order from the Calcutta High Court.

ED is probing the money trail for the said scam, which provided qualified candidates in government-sponsored schools across the state and provided jobs to the alleged unqualified candidates against cash.
