Mamta alleges that they are dancing in the procession with guns. They are defaming the name of Lord Ram. Let us tell you that earlier, the Kolkata High Court had reprimanded the Mamta government in the case of Bengal violence. The High Court had said that the police could not control the violence, while the procession had taken place only with its permission.

PIL) has been filed. I have demanded the court bring the situation under control, deploy central security forces to protect the lives of innocent people, and have the NIA probe the violence.'
Let us tell you that Bengal CM Mamta Banerjee is often accused of Muslim appeasement, and there are reports of violence in the state during most Hindu festivals like Durga Puja, Saraswati Puja, Ram Navami, and Hanuman Janmotsav. Recently, before Ram Navami, CM Banerjee said, 'I have no problem with Ram Navami, but everyone's festivals are going on—Ramzan is going on, Rosa is going on. In such a situation, if there is an attack in a single Muslim area, I will leave it. No.' This statement of CM Mamta was also said by the opponents to have already given a free hand to the Muslims for violence. At the same time, even after the violence on Ramnavami, Mamta expressed her apprehension about riots on Hanuman Janmotsav on April 6 and said that she would appeal to the administration and Hindu brothers so that on April 6, no one should attack a Muslim brother.
