With the high-stakes Bengal elections weeks away, BJP West Bengal on March 28 shared a 8-second video of a pre-election speech by West Bengal chief minister Mamata Banerjee. The party claimed on X that Banerjee had said BJP did much drama if a Shiv Mandir was destroyed, which implied that demolition of Hindu temples was not an important issue to her.<\/p>\n
