Hitting back at BJP's Amit Malviya over his Kaali remarks, TMC MP Saugata Roy said that there was no need to give a lesson to Bengali Hindus about Maa Kaali. Amit Malviya is spreading lies.
He said, "The PM never did ‘Kali Shadna’. He went to a program at Ramakrishna Mission today. What Amit Malviya has said is not right. We will not interfere in any religious issue. That is our party's stand. And we will not create controversy. This is why we did not support our MP. But we will not take a lesson from Amit Malviya about Maa Kaäli.
TMC MP Roy reacted to Malviya's comment while talking to the media on the sidelines of an event in Kamarhati on Sunday.
Referring to PM Modi’s speech, BJP leader, Amit Malviya on Sunday targeted CM Mamata Banerjee and TMC MP Mahua Moitra and tweeted, “Prime Minister Narendra Modi speaks reverentially about Maa Kaali being the center of devotion, not just for Bengal but whole of India. On the other hand, a TMC MP insults Maa Kaali and Mamata Banerjee instead of acting against her, defends her obnoxious portrayal of Maa Kaali.
