"In Mamata Banerjee's regime, a terrorist like Shahjahan Sheikh gets state protection and sadhus are being lynched. It is a crime to be a Hindu in West Bengal," the BJP leader added in his post. Besides, Acharya Satyendra Das alleged that whenever Bengal CM sees 'Bhagwa' colour she gets angry. Acharya Das said, "Someone had given the name Mumtaz Khan to Mamata Banerjee as her sympathy is towards Muslims. Maximum attacks on Hindus take place in West Bengal. Attacks have happened on processions on Ram Navami and other religious processions in West Bengal. When the rituals of Maa Durga take place and people go to worship her, then those pandals are destroyed."

He further alleged that the Chief Minister instigated these kinds of attacks in West Bengal. "She (Mamata Banerjee) gets angry when she sees the 'Bhagwa' colour and this is why she makes these attacks happen...These incidents of attacks are highly condemnable," he added. Meanwhile, Union Minister Anurag Thakur also reacted to the incident and said that law and order have been collapsed in West Bengal. "Appeasement politics has created such an environment. Law and order have collapsed in West Bengal...the question is why is there such anti-Hindu thinking?" Anurag Thakur told reporters on Saturday.
