Describing the current situation in the country as "not fine", West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee today asserted that the "politics of isolation" going on in the country is not welcome.
Participating in the prayer for Eid-ul-Fitr held on a rain-drenched Red Road in Kolkata, Mamata Banerjee urged the people gathered there not to be scared but to be united for a better future.
"The situation in the country is not fine. The policy of divide and rule and politics of isolation going on in the country are not correct. Do not be scared and keep on fighting," she said.
