CHAGUANAS Mayor Dr. Surujrattan Rambachan has denied allegations that he put a good cussing on his deputy, Orlando Nagessar.

Rambachan, instead, claimed that he and Nagessar were having a discussion about a project.

The fiery showdown reportedly took place a Saith Park, Chaguanas last Wednesday when the Soca Warriors visited several areas in South and Central Trinidad.

Sources, however, told TnT Mirror that the cussout took place after the Soca Warriors left the park.

Mirror was reliably informed that an argument ensued between the two senior politicians over a portion of land located in the park.

Couva North MP, Basdeo Panday, while in government, had allowed the nearby Montrose Vedic School to use the portion of land as a playground for students until the school was relocated.

Saith Park was built during the tenure of Nagessar and Panday turned the sod for the beginning of construction.

Reports revealed the episode began when Rambachan accused Nagessar of undermining his project for the lawn tennis court on the land.

“The normally quiet Orlando explained to the mayor that Panday had given the school permission to use the land as a playground.

“Rambachan in an angry tone allegedly said that Panday and Orlando can’t stop him from doing anything.

“The mayor used expletives questioning who Panday and Nagessar were.

“Orlando apparently lost his cool as well and did return some harsh words to the mayor,” a source said.

Persons who witnessed the cussout, are of the view that the behaviour was unbecoming of senior politicians.

Both men are strongly involved in religious activities.

Rambachan said the allegations against him were not true but was mischief. Attempts to contact Nagessar were futile.
