Mahua Moitra Mamata Banerjee Video Goes Viral:

CM Banerjee says in Bengali, "Mahua, let me give a clear message here. I don't need to see who is against whom. If someone does not like a person, he or she puts up some news on YouTube or in newspapers. This kind of politics can go for one day but not forever. And for only one person to be in the same place forever, that is also not right."

She added that when there is an election, the party will decide who will contest and who will not and that there should be no difference of opinion. "I am telling you, everyone should work together," she says. In the video, Moitra is seen silently nodding to Banerjee.
