Majumdar said that his lawyer will send defamation notice to Saha papers.
He also said that team management and chief selector Chetan Sharma told him that they were moving on from him and he won’t be selected in the India Test team going forward. He also said that this happened despite BCCI President Sourav Ganguly apparently telling him not to worry about his place in Team India as long as he was at the helm of affairs.
On top of that, he shared some screenshots of a Whatsapp chat with an Indian journalist who had allegedly threatened him of consequences after he refused to give an interview to him.
On Saturday, Wriddhiman Saha was enquired by the BCCI and he stated that he had a lengthy discussion with the board and he narrated the entire incident in the meeting. He also revealed the name of the journalist who had threatened him to a 3-member committee that was set up by the BCCI to look into the matter.

This journalist turned out to be Boria Majumdar, who took to Twitter to share a video of himself explaining his side of things. Furthermore, Majumdar accused Saha of doctoring the screenshots of the chat, giving false statements, and tarnishing his image in public.
He is also heard saying that his lawyers will serve Saha with defamation notice.
“There are always two sides to a story. @Wriddhipops has doctored, tampered screenshots of my WhatsApp chats which have damaged my reputation and credibility. I have requested the @BCCI for a fair hearing. My lawyers are serving @Wriddhipops a defamation notice. Let truth prevail,” Boria Majumdar tweeted.
