She had invited him and First Lady Sudesh Dhankhar to her south Kolkata residence on the occasion of Kali puja, after the governor had expressed his desire to be at her residence on the occasion of 'Bhai Dooj'.

Later, Banerjee wrote to Dhankhar inviting him to attend the 40-year-old Kali Puja at her residence. Dhankhar, who took oath as the Governor of West Bengal on July 30, had been at loggerheads with the state government over several issues -- ranging from his seating arrangement at the Durga Puja carnival to security upgrade -- since he rushed to Jadavpur University on September to "rescue" Union minister Babul Supriyo, who was being "heckled" by a section of students.
