Kolkata, May 11 -- New West Bengal Chief Minister Suvendu Adhikari on Monday received a red carpet welcome as he took charge at the state secretariat Nabanna two days after taking oath for the high office.

Adhikari, who reached Nabanna at 11.08 am wearing a white kurta and pyjama, was received by senior administrative and police officials as the red carpet was rolled out for him.

Adhikari was given a formal salute after he inspected a guard of honour from the state police personnel, amidst heightened security arrangements at the Secretariat.

Adhikari was seen repeatedly greeting all those present with folded hands, as television camerapersons and photo journalists frantically captured every moment of the historic occasion.
