PM Modi Criticises West Bengal Government Over President Murmu's Visit Protocol Issues

Prime Minister Narendra Modi criticised the West Bengal Trinamool Congress (TMC) government for its handling of President Droupadi Murmu's recent visit, calling the treatment "shameful and unprecedented." Modi attributed the insult to the President, who hails from a tribal community, to the TMC administration, highlighting concerns over protocol lapses and the casual treatment of tribal culture, particularly the Santals. President Murmu expressed disappointment over venue changes and protocol issues but clarified she held no personal grudges against Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee.
