Police should take suo motu action against BJP leaders for 'Encounter' comment, says Mamata

West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee said on Wednesday the police should take suo motu cognizance against those BJP leaders who advocated the "Uttar Pradesh model" of encounters in the state to wipe out criminals.
Banerjee also condemned the lynching incidents across India, saying the country belonged to each and every citizen irrespective of his or her caste, creed and religion.
"Some BJP leaders are threatening to conduct encounters in West Bengal. I don't know why the police did not file a suo motu case against them and take action. The police should take suo-motu cognizance," she said while speaking on the floor of the assembly.
