Addressing the situation, Banerjee said, “I won’t say much about Bangladesh since it is another country, but if someone from Bangladesh, in desperation, knocks on our doors, we will provide them shelter.” Her statement highlights West Bengal’s commitment to humanitarian values and the global responsibility to help those in need.

Banerjee’s remarks reflect the longstanding tradition of offering refuge to those in distress, reinforcing the state’s readiness to support and protect victims of violence and persecution. The Chief Minister’s reference to the United Nations’ principles underscores the global obligation to assist refugees and uphold their dignity.

This compassionate stance is crucial as it assures potential refugees that they will find safety and support in West Bengal. Banerjee’s message of solidarity and humanitarian aid serves as a reminder of the shared responsibility to help vulnerable populations during times of crisis.
