On the day of Muharram, the ban of Mamata government’s on immersion was challenged by the High Court.

The judge of the Calcutta High Court had said yesterday that there was no such thing in West Bengal about Durga Puja and Muharram. It seems the government is only creating cracks. Let all the community stay together The government can not impose its own thinking without any concrete reason. The State Government itself says that Bengal is the only state where Hindus and Muslims live in peace, and now the government is saying that anything can happen, it is unfortunate. It is unfortunate. How can you snatch the basic rights of any religion, whether it is a Hindu or a Muslim
