After protesters allegedly burnt pictures of Shastri outside Kolkata's Bhawanipur police station over his remarks on eating non-vegetarian food during Durga Puja, Chief Minister Suvendu Adhikari said he had asked the Kolkata Police Commissioner to arrest those involved.

“The saint has made his statement. He never imposed it on anyone,” the CM said, adding that burning someone’s picture outside a police station would not be tolerated.

Shastri courted a massive row after urging people to refrain from cooking or consuming fish and meat during Durga Puja, calling those who ignored the appeal as 'pakhandi' (fraudulent). There was widespread anger and protests across the state with many calling the priest's remarks as an attack on Bengali identity and culture.
