Nirbhaya's mother calls for Mamata Banerjee's resignation. She said "Instead of using her authority to act against the culprits, Mamata Banerjee is protesting to divert people's attention from the issue" "She should resign for failing to handle the situation" - NIRBHAYA's MOTHER.
Asha Devi, mother of Nirbhaya, the victim of the 2012 Delhi gang rape case, demanded the resignation of West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on Saturday amid protests against the alleged rape and murder of a trainee doctor in West Bengal RG Kar Medical College and Hospital, claiming she had failed to handle the situation.
She said, “Instead of using her authority to take action against the culprits, Mamata Banerjee is trying to mislead the public. CM Banerjee is protesting to divert people’s attention from this issue. She herself is a woman. She should have taken strict action against the culprits while discharging her responsibility as the head of the state. She should resign because she has failed to handle the situation.”
On August 9, the 31-year-old postgraduate trainee physician was allegedly sexually raped and murdered while on duties at the R G Kar Medical College and Hospital in Kolkata. To demand justice for the victim, doctors around the nation and students of her college have been holding protests.
CM Banerjee led a protest march on Friday that went from Moulali to Kolkata’s Dorina Crossing and demanded that the offenders be given capital punishment.
Asha Devi stated that such violence will persist in many regions of the country on a daily basis unless the federal and state governments take rapists’ fast legal sentencing seriously. “When girls are not safe in Kolkata’s medical college and such barbarity is committed against them, then one can understand the state of women’s safety in the country,” she said.
One person was arrested by West Bengal Police in connection with the crime one day after the trainee doctor was reportedly raped and killed. Subsequently, the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) was assigned the case by the Calcutta High Court, which cited shortcomings in the police investigation.
