Mamata cautions against communal posts on social media

In an indirect reference to the BJP, West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on Monday cautioned against "attempts by a certain political party" to stoke communal tension on social media during the upcoming festive season.

Banerjee, who was addressing a meeting with Durga Puja organisers and Kolkata Police at Netaji Indoor Stadium here, said, "The IT cell of a certain political party is at work to instigate people, and create a riot-like situation by spreading rumours on social media during the season of Durga Puja and other festivals. Please defeat such conspiracies."
