West Bengal Governor Keshari Nath Tripathi today sustained a minor injury after tripping on the dais during a programme held here.
Tripathi sustained injury on top of his right eye after tripping on the dais of a book release programme held at the Gorky Sadan in the southern part of the city.
The Governor was climbing the stairs up to the stage when he tripped, probably after his feet got entangled in the wires of the microphones and sound boxes, a Raj Bhawan official said.
A preliminary check-up has been done and the Governor has said he was fine, the official said.
Tripathi remained present at the programme, he said adding, there will be a thorough check-up of the Governor later on.
