Controversy over 'The Bengal Files' in Bengal: Special selection amid ban, people replied
Kolkata, September 13 (IANS). Vivek Ranjan Agnihotri’s film ‘The Bengal Files’ was released in theaters across the country, but it was not banned in Western Bengals, but was not released in the cinema houses. However, a special display of the film was held in some areas of Bengal, where the audience shared his reactions after watching it. Meanwhile, political controversy about the film is also deepening. Former Team India cricketer and BJP Mla Ashok Dinda targeted the TMC government on the ban on the film. He said: “Mamata Banerjee wants to hide the history of Bengal. The truth of ‘Direct Action Day’ is displayed in this film. If the people of Bengal see it, Hindus could possibly unite in the Western Bengal election. Pastors were the Goons of CPM in the past. At the same time, former governor of Tripura, Tathagata Roy, also expressed his opinion on the issue. She is afraid that if the Hindu community, which is majority in the state, will watch this film, her voices against TMC can go. “Roy claims that the government tried to disrupt the show by sending unemployed youth. So an attempt is made to stop it. “When Roy was asked whether” the Bengal files were “a propaganda film, he replied:” The facts shown in it are not wrong. No one says the film showed a lie in the film. ” BJP -LP Suvendu Adhikari said: “The situation here has become so that the Bengal files are not released in a single cinema hall in Bengal, but this film is running throughout the country. The situation of Bengal is such that everyone should come and see how Bengal files should look.
