TMC MP Saayoni Ghosh’s Speech Promotes Religious Harmony in Bhabanipur Rally TMC MP Saayoni Ghosh’s speech promoting religious harmony has gone viral again after she recited chants from multiple faiths during a rally in Bhabanipur, West Bengal, on April 26, 2026. The Lok Sabha member addressed a public gathering in support of party candidates for Baruipur Paschim and Baruipur Purba constituencies, describing the area as “mini India” where people from different religions coexist peacefully. In her speech, Ghosh invoked prayers from Hindu, Muslim, Sikh, and Christian traditions, including the Sanskrit mantra “Ya Devi Sarvabhuteshu Shakti Rupen Sansthita” from the Durga Saptashati, the Islamic declaration “La ilaha illallah, Muhammadur Rasulullah, Bismillahir Rahmanir Rahim,” and the Sikh Mool Mantar. She blended Bangla, Hindi, and Punjabi in her address, reflecting the cultural diversity of the region. Ghosh accused the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) of attempting to divide such pluralistic spaces, stating that the party seeks to undermine communal harmony. Sharing the video on X (formerly Twitter), she captioned it: “Hindu, Muslim, Sikh, Christian, We’ll live among ourselves as brothers.” The rally took place in Bhabanipur, from where TMC supremo and Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee is contesting the assembly elections. Ghosh described the locality as a place where “from one home you can hear the chant” of Hindu prayers and “from another lane you can hear” Muslim invocations, highlighting the area’s religious diversity. Her message emphasized unity across faiths, directly countering narratives of division she attributed to the BJP. The speech has been widely shared on social media platforms, drawing attention to her efforts in promoting interfaith dialogue during the election campaign.
