We believe equally in all religions: Mamata Banerjee

Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee addressed a press conference at Nabanna today.
Highlights:
- We respect all religions equally.
- I am strongly condemning the irresponsible, provocative and communal comments of some of the BJP leaders.
- The country’s secular character is in strong need of preservation for a peaceful and secure future.
- I request all my brothers and sisters of all religions, castes and creeds to maintain peace and togetherness.
- Divisive comments disturb the peace of the country and poison the thoughts of the people.
