Won't allow division of West Bengal: Mamata

South and north Bengal together make West Bengal. There is no question of dividing West Bengal

PTI, SILIGURI, OCTOBER 20, 2022: Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on Wednesday said she won't allow the division of West Bengal.

Addressing a 'Bijaya Sammilani' or post-Durga Puja meeting in Siliguri, she urged people to stay away from instigations being made to disrupt the law and order situation of the state.

"South and north Bengal together make West Bengal. There is no question of dividing West Bengal. We wouldn't allow it. We want a single Bengal. If we can work together, then north Bengal will be stronger," Mamata said, referring to the development projects her government has undertaken in the region. Mamata's statement came after a demand by a section of BJP leaders from the region that a Union territory comprising the north Bengal districts be carved out of the state, alleging lack of development in the region.
