NEW DELHI: West Bengal chief minister on Tuesday said that she will visit the violence-hit district of Murshidabad in the first week of May.
"I will visit troubled areas of Murshidabad in first week of May," she said speaking at a government event.
Violence struck Murshidabad during anti-Waqf (Amendment) Act protests leading to three deaths, with hundreds fleeing their homes. The protest later spread to several other districts, including Malda, South 24 Parganas, and Hooghly, with reports of arson, stone-pelting, and road blockades.
Last week, West Bengal governor CV Ananda Bose had visited Murshidabad, ignoring Mamata's request not to go.
Bose visited Murshidabad and met with the victim families on Saturday.
President Droupadi Murmu gave her assent to the Waqf (Amendment) Bill, 2025, which was passed during the Budget Session of Parliament. She also approved the Mussalman Wakf (Repeal) Bill, 2025, following its passage in both Houses.
