  • Dhankar said he was made to sit in a wing, adjacent to the main central podium where CM Mamata Banerjee sat and watched the program.

  • However, what really surprised him was the deafening silence on the part of media on such a treatment meted out to a political executive.
     
  • Calling this to be a case of intolerance he said people of WB, who are warm, hospitable must have been outraged by this show of lack of respect and outrageous insult.
