Bengal Chief Secretary Alleges "Harassment" Of Bengali Migrants In Odisha | Read
West Bengal Chief Secretary Manoj Pant on Thursday wrote to his Odisha counterpart, urging him to put an end to "harassment" of Bengali-speaking migrant workers in certain parts of the neighbouring state.
Manoj Pant, in the letter, said the migrant workers are "targeted because they speak Bengali, which is their mother tongue" and "unjustly labelled as Bangladeshis".
The labourers include daily-wage earners, rickshaw-pullers and domestic workers.
