She sought four weeks' time from the Kolkata Police stating that her life is in danger. According to the news agency sources, Nupur has sent an email to the Kolkata Police in this regard. In that email, she said she would be able to appear before the Narakonda police station after four weeks. However, it is not known whether she has been informed by the police for any further date or not.  

After Nupur's controversial remarks, there was a fire of anger in different parts of the country. Later, in West Bengal as well. Following this, FIRs were lodged in the name of Nupur in many parts of the state including Kolkata.
