News Desk: The Bharatiya Janata Party slammed West Bengal chief minister Mamata Banerjee over ‘Durga Idol controversy’. The saffron party’s Amit Malviya said that it’s an insult to Goddess Durga and the chief minister is attacking the religious sentiments of Hindus.
Malviya said “This deification of Mamata Banerjee, who has the blood of innocent Bengalis on her hand, following the gruesome post-poll violence in Bengal, is nauseating. This is an insult to goddess Durga. Mamata Banerjee must stop this. She is hurting the sensibilities of Hindus of Bengal”
What is the Durga Idol controversy all about?
