'Kaali' Row Escalates; Mamata Slams Media As Mahua Defends Her Stance | Latest News

Continuing its attack on West Bengal Chief Minister over Mahua Moitra’s insulting comment on Goddess Kaali, the BJP on Thursday said that by protecting her, Mamata Banerjee was ‘trampling on the religious sentiments of Hindu Bengalis’.The BJP questioned the chief minister’s silence and inaction against Moitra. While responding to a question on a controversial film poster, Moitra said that for her “Goddess Kaali is a meat-eating and alcohol accepting goddess”. As her remarks set off outrage and the Bengal BJP leaders called for her arrest, Ms. Moitra's party, Bengal's ruling Trinamool Congress, has distanced itself from the controversy. Mohua on Wednesday, July 6th seems to have unfollowed Trinamool Congress on Twitter, even though she continued to follow CM Mamata Banerjee.
