BJP IT cell members posing as TMC cadre to malign us: Mamata Banerjee

West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee Monday condemned the arrest of 22-year-old climate activist Disha Ravi and said the BJP government should first take action against its own IT cell which, she alleged, is spreading fake news.

She said arresting anybody who is protesting against government policies is not unacceptable.

Mamata Banerjee alleged that the IT cell members of the saffron party are calling up people posing as TMC members and are maligning her party. She said she has asked Kolkata police to look into it.
