Gupta claimed in the complaint that Banerjee, during a function at the Yashwantrao Chavan Auditorium here in December 2021, remained seated when the national anthem began, and later stood up and sang two verses before stopping abruptly and leaving the venue

West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on Tuesday moved the Bombay High Court against a special court's order directing a magistrate to decide afresh a plea seeking the registration of a First Information Report (FIR) against her for allegedly disrespecting the national anthem.
A metropolitan magistrate's court here had in March 2022 issued a summons to Banerjee on a complaint filed by local BJP office-bearer Vivekanand Gupta.
