Protests erupt outside Kasba Police station as 3 arrested in alleged Kolkata college gang rape
Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on Thursday hit out at the ruling BJP in a tweet. He wrote on his tweet that when the protesting wrestlers alleged that the Delhi Police assaulted and abused them during the scuffle at the Jantar Mantar last night.
The Trinamool supremo supported the aggrieved wrestlers and said that it is very shameful to hurt the honor of our daughters in this way.
The Chief Minister tweeted "Disrobing the honour of our daughters in this manner is utterly shameful. India stands by its daughters and I as a human being definitely stand by our wrestlers. Law is one for all. “Law of the ruler” cant hijack the dignity of these fighters. You can assault them but can’t break their spirit. The fight is right and the fight will continue. Don’t dare to hurt our wrestlers, the nation is watching their tears and the nation won’t forgive you. I urge our wrestlers to stay strong, I share all my strength with them".
Banerjee's tweet comes after a video of distraught female wrestlers was widely shared on social media. The women wrestlers were in tears accusing the police of abuse.
