Activists of Sangh parivar carried saffron flags and posters of Lord Ram in the processions shouting 'Jai Sri Ram' slogan. Posters were seen pledging construction of Ram Mandir at Ayodhya.
In the metropolis, 22 Ram Navami processions were organized by the Sangh Parivar members.
Ram Navami processions were also taken out in Siliguri, Birbhum and some other places in the state.
"The response from the common people was very good," said a senior RSS functionary.
"It is a religious festival but through this we plan to unite the Hindus against the fundamentalist forces," a RSS functionary here said.
"Fundamentalist forces have increased across Bengal. Several bordering districts are witnessing huge demographic imbalance due to infiltration," Bidyut Mukherjee, the organizational secretary of RSS, West Bengal and Andaman and Nicobar Islands, has said.
Expressing support to the RSS programme, state BJP president Dilip Ghosh had said, "We fully support such programme to celebrate Ram Navami. It will help people to unite against the anti-national forces and vote bank politics".
