West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on Saturday issued a stern warning to right wing organisations, including the Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP), Bajrang Dal, and RSS against disturbing peace in the state during the upcoming Durga puja festival, asking them not to "play with fire".

Some people of the RSS, Bajrang Dal and VHP-brand... If they think they can snatch away peace and hurt Bengal’s culture, then let me tell them clearly – don’t play with fire. You be good and celebrate the Puja well. Whoever it is, whether it’s you or I, Trinamool Congress, Congress, CPI-M, BJP... I will not spare anyone who orchestrates riots. Politics should be done with politics. Those who cannot do politics with politics, they go for CBI, ED, riots, conspiracy. This is their game plan
Mamata Bannerjee, Chief Minister of West Bengal
