West Bengal Chief Minister and Trinamool chief Mamata Banerjee allegedly used an offensive word against PM Narendra Modi during her recent dharna demanding the release of MGNREGA funds due to West Bengal.
"We deplore the way Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee has talked about a respected leader like Modiji. This goes against the culture of Bengal and our heritage,” BJP youth leader Indranil Khan told reporters.
During a rally taken out by the BJP’s youth wing in Kolkata, the saffron party workers said they also carried copies of ‘Barnaparichay’, a popular primer written by Iswarchandra Vidyasagar, a 19th-century polymath and an icon in the state, to remind her about the richness of Bengali language.
BJP supporters on Sunday symbolically fed honey to a photograph of the TMC supremo Mamata to “sweeten her language”.
Referring to the Pran Pratishtha ceremony in Ayodhya, India Union of Muslim League (IUML) leader Sadiq Ali Shihab Thangal said, “A major development has taken place in our country. Ram Temple, which was an aspiration of the majority of people in the country, has become a reality.
The country cannot now walk back. That was a necessity of the majority community in the country. We need not protest that the temple has come up in Ayodhya. In a pluralistic society, everybody has freedom to go ahead as per their faith.”
“The Ram temple and the Babri Masjid, which is under construction following a court verdict, are best examples of secularism. We should imbibe that. Both are best symbols of secularism. It is true that kar sevaks had destroyed the masjid and we had protested against it in those days.
But Muslims in the country could face that situation with tolerance, especially in Kerala where Muslim community is very sensitive and active,” he said.
