The Calcutta High Court dismissed BJP leader Suvendu Adhikari's plea to defer Mamata Banerjee's 'Sampriti Rally' on January 22, coinciding with the Ram Temple inauguration. The court directed the state to ensure peaceful conduct, forbidding speeches hurting religious sentiments. Adhikari accused Banerjee of disturbing communal harmony and urged the Governor for central forces. Banerjee clarified the rally's aim is not related to the temple event, focusing on infrastructure development. TMC's Kunal Ghosh hailed the court's decision, accusing the BJP of seeking societal division. The rally, spanning various faiths, will culminate in Kolkata's Park Circus Maidan.
