"We have to respect and save our soil. No one can destroy Bengal. We will not allow Bengal to become Gujarat" said Mamata, during Bangla Sangeet Mela 2020 in Kolkata.
Speaking at the inauguration of a music fair, "Sangeet Mela 2020", in Kolkata, She said that music has no boundaries. "I only appeal that 'Sangeet Manch' don't believe in divisions. The music stage never believes in divisions. Same if you try to divide human life you can't. Only our faces, gestures and colours are different but we are same. Please don't allow anyone to divide. If someone says 'Inquilab' I don't have any problem same for Netaji's 'Jai Hind', all are from the soil of Bengal," said Banerjee.
