Speaking at a public event in Raiganj, located in Uttar Dinajpur district, he emphasized that cows are sacred to Hindus and must not be harmed.

"No one should raise a hand against 'Gau Mata'. No one should harm 'Gau Mata'. I am making this clear. If it happens, no one will be worse than me," the chief minister stated.

Reaffirming his administration's dedication to providing citizenship to Hindu refugees via the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA), the chief minister declared that he would ensure no refugee of the faith ends up imprisoned, encouraging anyone who has not yet applied for citizenship to apply right away.

"I will ensure that not a single Hindu refugee lands up in jail here and legal steps must be initiated immediately to free them and grant citizenship under the CAA," he addressed the crowd in the Bangladesh-bordering district.
