Bangladesh has been rocked by anti-quota protests in recent times. They died one after another. Protests have been going on in various parts of the state for the past few days. Meanwhile, West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee's comments have sparked a fresh controversy.
Mamata replied to the debate. "I know a lot about foreign policy.
Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee is in Delhi. She was questioned by reporters on Friday in the wake of his comments on Bangladesh. "I know the federal structure very well," she said. I was a seven-time MP and a two-time Union minister. I know foreign policy better than anyone else. They don't have to teach me. They should learn from the changed system.
What did Mamata say?
Mamata Banerjee had said from the stage of July 21 that if anyone from the neighbouring country comes to the doorstep of West Bengal, she will not return them with emptiness. “ I can't say anything more about it," she said. ”Bangladesh is an independent country. The Indian government will have to say something on this,"he said.
However, there was a lot of controversy surrounding Mamata's statement. The question is whether the state government has any say in the matter.
"With due respect to Mamata Banerjee, we have a very good and close relationship with her," Bangladesh Foreign Minister Hassan Mahmood Ali said. But his statement has created a lot of confusion. There is a possibility of confusion. We have already informed the Government of India about his statement. '
Meanwhile, the central government did not take kindly to Mamata's comments.
A PTI report quoted sources in the central government as saying that the central government was not at all pleased with Mamata's comments. The West Bengal government has no locus standi to comment on the issue. "These are issues that are handled by the central government. The state government has nothing to do with this. These comments (made by Mamata Banerjee) are completely wrong. '
Mamata Banerjee, however, responded to the controversy by sitting in Delhi. "I know the federal structure very well. I was a seven-time MP and a two-time Union minister. I know foreign policy better than anyone else. They don't have to teach me. They should learn from the changed system.
