West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee has accused BJP-ruled states of imposing a "super-Emergency" by targeting Bengali-speaking people. She claims her government has received nearly 1,000 complaints of illegal detentions since June, particularly in Odisha and Maharashtra, where migrant workers are allegedly being targeted under the guise of identifying illegal Bangladeshi immigrants.
