Mamata Banerjee Leads Massive Kolkata Protest Over Bengali Migrant Harassment | TMC Vs BJP | LIVE
West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee led a powerful two‑kilometre protest march in Kolkata on July 16, starting from College Square and marching to Dharmatala, to condemn the alleged harassment and unlawful detention of Bengali‑speaking migrant workers in BJP‑ruled states. The rally, joined by prominent TMC leaders including Abhishek Banerjee and Chandrima Bhattacharya, highlighted incidents in Odisha, Delhi, Assam, Jharkhand, and more
The event denounced “linguistic profiling” and the unfair branding of Indian citizens as “Bangladeshis” simply for speaking Bengali, citing cases of cutoff of essential services and arbitrary detentions.
Amid heavy rain, the march demonstrated a strong message of Bengali unity, asserting citizens’ rights and regional dignity ahead of the 2026 Assembly elections. This video captures key moments of the march, fiery speeches defending Bengali asmita, and chants against discriminatory tactics. A crucial moment in West Bengal’s ongoing political narrative, this protest underscores the TMC’s focus on identity politics and protective mobilization.
