Indian politician Mamata Banerjee, serving chief minister of West Bengal, banned the Islamophobic film ‘The Kerala Story’ in the state. On Monday, Mamata Banerjee announced that her government of Trinamool Congress (TMC) will ban the controversial title in Bengal, owing to the ‘distorted’ depiction of the original subject. Comparing it to Vivek Agnihotri’s ‘The Kashmir Files’, Banerjee said that the film is aimed at hitting out a particular community, similar to the former.
