A cultural program featuring Bangladeshi writer Taslima Nasreen in Kolkata was disrupted when she invited poet Joy Goswami on stage. The audience protested, booing and interrupting her speech due to Goswami's perceived closeness to former CM Mamata Banerjee and his past silence over Nasreen's exile. Nasreen, who was honored by the state government earlier that day, delivered her speech after the commotion subsided.
