Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee once again, without naming the Centre or the BJP said that it was the time to be tolerant and that there was no place for intolerance in Bengal.

“There is should not be any intolerance here. There is no place for ‘dangabaag’( rioters). There seems to be a new phrase doing the rounds. ‘I am Hindu I will kill Muslims. Or I am a Muslim I will insult Hindus. We all should respect each others’ religious faith for a mutual existence,” she said at the Netaji Indoor Stadium here speaking on the occasion of the 100th year celebration of Bharat Sevashram Sangha.

She said that the constitution guaranteed right to preach practice and propagate any religion of one’s choice. “People are doing politics taking the help of their god. The idols of our goddess mother which we worship we will keep them with reverence at home and not take those out on the street to incite others,” she said.

Speaking of preserving some of the heritage sites in Bengal related to Ramkrishna Paramahamsa and Swami Vivekananda, she said, “We will preserve our heritage ourselves. We will not go begging to anyone or ask for any assistance to anyone.”
