Bangladesh Protests: Mamata Banerjee Offers Shelter to ‘Those in Distress’ as Death Toll Crosses 130

West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee announced on Sunday that the Trinamool Congress-led state government would provide shelter to people fleeing violence in Bangladesh if they seek refuge in Bengal.

Speaking at a mega 'Martyrs' Day' rally in Kolkata, Banerjee emphasized the humanitarian duty to aid those in need, referencing the United Nations' resolution on refugee protection.

"I cannot speak anything about Bangladesh as it is another country.

The Indian government will speak about that.

But if helpless people (from Bangladesh) knock on Bengal's door, we will give them shelter.

There is a resolution of the UN.

Neighbours will respect refugees," Banerjee declared amid heavy rain.

Bangladesh Violent Protest: Supreme Court Scales Back Job Quota That Sparked Deadly Violence

Bangladesh’s Supreme Court has ordered a significant reduction in the country’s controversial quota system for government jobs, following nationwide protests and violent clashes that have resulted in numerous casualties. The new ruling stipulates that 93% of government jobs will now be allocated based on merit, with the remaining 7% reserved for relatives of veterans from Bangladesh’s 1971 war of independence and other specific categories. Previously, 30% of these jobs were reserved for war veterans' relatives. #BangladeshProtests #StudentUnrest #DhakaLockdown #QuotaReform #BangladeshProtestsLIVE #BangladeshProtestsViolent #BangladeshJobQuota #BangladeshSupremeCourt #SheikhHasina #BangladeshProtestNews #BangladeshNews ~HT.97~PR.152~ED.194~

'... and it was 240': Trinamool MP Kalyan Banerjee mocks BJP's '400-paar' claims | Watch Video

A video of Trinamool Congress (TMC) MP Kalyan Banerjee mocking the Bharatiya Janata Party’s (BJP) poll slogan ‘abki baar 400 paar’ in the Lok Sabha went viral on Tuesday, July 2. Banerjee ridiculed the slogan, saying, “They played the game with ‘abki baar 400 paar.’ There are many games, and chu-kit-kit is one of them.” He explained that the slogan ‘400’ resonated loudly with ‘chu’ and ended with ‘kit-kit.’ He pointed out that despite their slogan, the BJP only won 240 seats and still lost the game. Chu-kit-kit, a game popular among children in West Bengal and often considered a modified version of Hopscotch, involves drawing nine squares inside a large triangle. Players must strike a stone with their foot while ensuring their other leg does not touch the ground. Banerjee's comparison of the BJP's electoral performance to this children's game was intended to highlight their shortfall in achieving their ambitious goal. #TrinamoolCongress #KalyanBanerjeeKitKitJibe #KalyanBanerjeeViralVideo #KalyanBanerjeeHilariousJibe #KlayanBanerjeeMocksBJP #KalyanBanerjee400PaarJibe #KalyanBanerjee #BJP #400Paar #LokSabha #Mockery #PoliticalSatire #ViralVideo #ChuKitKit #WestBengal #TMC #PollSlogan #IndianPolitics #Election2024 #PoliticalHumor ~PR.152~ED.101~HT.334~
