London, Mar 28: West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee was interrupted by a group of protesting students during her speech at an Oxford University event, leading to a brief moment of tension.

The students reportedly raised slogans and questioned Banerjee on various political and governance issues, disrupting the proceedings. Security personnel intervened, and the situation was brought under control, allowing the event to continue.

Despite the interruption, Banerjee remained composed and addressed the gathering, emphasizing her vision for governance, democracy, and development. She also highlighted Bengal’s contributions in various sectors, including education, industry, and culture.

While protests are not uncommon at university events featuring political figures, the incident has sparked discussions about the growing scrutiny of Indian politicians on global platforms. Banerjee has yet to comment on the protest, but sources close to her stated that she remains focused on strengthening international ties and promoting Bengal’s global outreach.
