In his tweet, Giriraj Singh had satirically criticized the incumbent Bengal CM for her gotra feedback, writing, ‘Mamata Didi, now we’ll have to determine whether or not the gotra of Rohingya and infiltrators is Shandilya as nicely?” It is of word that Mamata Banerjee belongs to the identical Brahmin caste and gotra which Mahua Moitra known as “Chotiwala Rakshasa”.

Many Twitter customers took subject with Mahua Moitra’s tweet, discerning it as “Hinduphobic” and “Anti-Brahmin”. This notion arises from Moitra’s comment “Chotiwala Rakshasha” which is asking “chotiwalas” i.e. religious Brahmin observers of Hinduism who observe the Shikha custom of Brahmins, a “Rakshasha” which accurately interprets to monsters.
A ‘Moitra’ calling Hindus Kafir for Muslim votes is all the pieces that’s flawed with Mamata’s appeasement and discriminatory politics.” says one Twitter person.

‘Shandilya’ is likely one of the eight main Brahmin Gotras. According to the Bhagavata Purana, Shandilya was a outstanding rishi and the progenitor of the ‘Shandilya’ gotra.
Mamata Banerjee has introduced up her Brahmin caste in her campaigning earlier than. On March 9 in a Nandigram rally, Banerjee mentioned, “I would like to tell him that I belong to a Brahmin family and he should not play the religion card with me. Don’t teach Hindu dharma to me.”
