West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee today created a controversy by saying that young activist Sudipto Gupta's death was a "petty matter" and no reason for students in Kolkata to protest over. "It is an accident. It is very unfortunate. It is not police assault," she said on a trip to Bangalore.
