West Bengal a center of Religious tourism - Mamata Banerjee

West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee criticized the BJP-led central government on Thursday, accusing it of engaging in religious politics. While offering prayers at the Baba Loknath temple in Chakla, North 24 Parganas district, Banerjee emphasized the need to respect all religions, transcending party ideologies.

She expressed concern over the politicization of religions during elections and urged for a cessation of such practices. Banerjee asserted that religions worldwide advocate compassion, love, and brotherhood, rather than violence, adding that respect for all faiths should extend beyond election periods.

Banerjee, without explicitly naming any party, emphasized the importance of consistent respect for religions, emphasizing that religious sentiments should not be exploited for political gains.

Additionally, she underscored West Bengal's potential as not only a favored tourist destination but also as a hub for religious tourism. The Chief Minister highlighted the state's numerous religious sites, which the government is actively promoting as tourist destinations.
