KOLKATA: West Bengal Chief Minister, Mamata Banerjee, on Wednesday said that the Trinamool Congress' protests against the alleged harassment of Bengali-speaking individuals in different states across the country, will now reach beyond the borders of Bengal.

“In future, whenever we receive any information of Bengali-speaking people being harassed selectively anywhere and in any other state, we will be organising protests there as well. We have been harmed. But still, we are organised.

"We are ready to give a fitting reply to such selective harassment of Bengali-speaking people in other states, ” Chief Minister Banerjee said while addressing a gathering at Central Kolkata at the end of a protest march in the city, which she led, braving the rains.
