Congress stages gherao at Nizam Palace, demands swift CBI action in R.G. Tax case
Protesters accuse CBI of diverting attention from the R.G. Kar rape and murder case
Despite heavy rain, Congress workers march with bangles, delivering an ultimatum to CBI
On Wednesday, Congress workers staged a gherao at Nizam Palace in Kolkata, expressing dissatisfaction with the CBI's handling of the RG Kar case. Despite the heavy rain, the protesters marched from the Academy of Fine Arts to Nizam Palace, carrying bangles and delivering an ultimatum to the CBI to expedite the investigation.
Congress leaders voiced their frustration, claiming that the arrest of Sandeep Ghosh for financial irregularities is an attempt to divert attention from the more pressing issue of the rape and murder case of the victim from R.G. Kar Medical College.
They accused the authorities of using the financial investigation as a distraction from the main case, which has sparked widespread public outrage.
The protest underscores the growing dissatisfaction with the investigation's progress and the belief that justice is being delayed in the case that has gripped the state.
