"Saffron Hind" vs. Quran: Mamata Faces Double Trap in Bengal (62 chars)

• West Bengal politics is increasingly polarized along religious lines, shifting from development to "Dharma Yudh."
• A large Gita recitation event at Kolkata's Brigade Parade Ground, attended by BJP leaders, aimed to mobilize Hindu voters.
• Religious figures at the event called for "Saffron Hind," directly targeting core Hindu voters.
• CM Mamata Banerjee faces a "double trap": opposing Muslim leaders risks alienating Muslim voters, while silence allows BJP to portray her as anti-Hindu.
• A suspended TMC leader is advocating for a Quran recitation and a mosque, threatening to split Muslim votes and further complicate Mamata's position.

Why It Matters: West Bengal's religious polarization creates a no-win situation for Mamata Banerjee.
