Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee urged people to uphold the tradition and legacy of long-cherished communal peace, harmony and tradition in Bengal.
She was addressing a gathering to celebrate the 150th birth anniversary of Birsha Munda. Munda, a tribal leader, was hanged by the British administration on charges of sedition.
Miss Banerjee said, "In Bengal every religion is respected. We observe Durga Puja, Eid, Christmas, Buddha Jayanti, Guru Nanakji's birthday along with Karam Puja, Hool Utsav. We have holidays on Karam Puja, Hool Utsav and the birthday of Birsha Munda. This is Bengal. Religion is personal but the festival is for all. Respect your religion and tradition and at the same time respect the feelings, sentiments and religion of others," she said.
