Why does Centre dislike Bengal so much: Mamata Banerjee slams Modi govt over Netaji statue row

West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee has slammed the Centre over Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose's statue row, asking why does the Narendra Modi-led BJP government dislike Bengal so much.

Accusing the Centre of disrespecting Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose, she said one cannot pay respects to the late freedom fighter as "we don't know the death date".

She also accused the Centre of politicising the National War Memorial.
