The West Bengal chief minister also appealed to "brothers and sisters from all castes, creeds, religions, and communities to maintain peace in the larger interest of the common people, despite the provocations".Meanwhile, AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi has been named in an FIR registered by the Delhi Police on Thursday over alleged inflammatory remarks yesterday.
