'Days of threat culture over': Bengal CM assures security to Bangladeshi author Taslima Nasreen
West Bengal CM Suvendu Adhikari assured exiled Bangladeshi author Taslima Nasreen of full security during her visits to the state, saying the 'days of threat culture are over.'
Nasreen made her first public visit to Kolkata in nearly two decades, describing it as an emotional homecoming and saying it felt like returning to 'my own country.'
Her memoir 'Dwikhandito' was banned by the Left Front government in West Bengal in 2003, and protests over it forced her to leave Kolkata in 2007.
Nasreen had taken refuge in India after fleeing Bangladesh in the 1990s due to threats over her writings.
