Maa Sarada has been disrespected: Ramkrishna Mission reacts to TMC leader's reincarnation theory involving Mamata

Kolkata/IBNS: Hindu religious and spiritual organisation Ramkrishna Mission Thursday said Maa Sarada was "disrespected" by Trinamool Congress leader Nirmal Majhi, who claimed West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee is the reincarnation of Sarada Devi.

Sarada Devi was the wife and spiritual consort of Ramkrishna Paramahansha, a 19th century Hindu mystic.

Majhi, a trusted lieutenant of Banerjee, had said, "Ma Sarada had said 'After so many years of death, I will be born again in Kalighat near Kali temple area. I will be reborn again as a human. I will be involved in sacrifice, social and political activities.'"

Majhi, an MLA from Uluberia North in West Bengal, had resorted to mathematical calculation to prove Banerjee is the reincarnation of Maa Sarada.

Reacting strongly to the comment, Ramkrishna Mission general secretary Swami Subirananda said, "Maa Sarada has been disrespected. We are unable to express our anger and grief. We are unable to toler the disrespect of Maa Sarada."

"Ramkrishna Mission appeals to people to refrain from making such statements," he added.
