MAMATA ON THE KASHMIR FILES
Banerjee, during a press briefing in the state secretariat in Kolkata, had said, “What is ‘The Kashmir Files’? It is to humiliate one section. What is ‘The Kerala Story’?… It is a distorted story. BJP is showing The Kerala Story, a distorted story. A few days back, some stars funded by BJP came to Bengal, and with some distorted and concocted story, they are preparing Bengal Files.”
WHICH SECTION?
