West Bengal chief minister Mamata Banerjee on Wednesday pulled up authorities of Shri Shikshayatan, a private girl’s school in Kolkata, for playing Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s ‘Maan Ki Baat’ for students.
The Trinamool Congress chief, however, did not name either Modi or his monthly radio show.
“I heard that the Shri Shikshayatan principal is playing the video of a speech by a political leader in the classrooms and forcing the students to watch it. This is unfair,” Banerjee told Bratati Bhattacharyya, secretary general of the Shikshayatan Foundation , during a meeting with representatives of private schools in the state.
