The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leaders, including Agnimitra Paul, Sukanta Majumdar, Locket Chatterjee, and Hiran, lead a high-profile dharna at Shyambazar Metro Gate No. 1 on Tuesday, demanding justice in the horrific RG Kar Medical College rape and murder case.
With permission granted by the Calcutta High Court, BJP workers in large numbers joined their leaders in the peaceful protest. The leaders called for swift and transparent action to ensure justice for the 31-year-old junior doctor, whose brutal rape and murder at the hospital has sparked nationwide outrage.
The BJP leaders, while addressing the crowd, emphasized the importance of holding the authorities accountable and demanded a fair investigation into the incident. Demonstrators chanted slogans and held placards calling for justice, as the police maintained a heavy presence in the area to ensure order. This protest comes as part of a wider movement seeking justice for the victim, whose case has now been handed over to the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI). The BJP’s demonstration is expected to continue, putting further pressure on the state government and local authorities to deliver justice swiftly and transparently.
