She also sought PM Narendra Modi's intervention in bringing back persecuted Indians from the neighbouring country.

Addressing the assembly, Banerjee condemned the attack on Hindus in Bangladesh and called for stricter measures. She demanded that the external affairs minister appraise Parliament on India's stand on the current situation in Bangladesh.
