Speeding bus mows down pedestrian at MG Road more, driver flee
A commotion unfolded within the West Bengal Assembly as BJP's women MLAs moved an adjournment motion to protest against the increasing atrocities on women in the state. Speaker Biman Banerjee permitted the motion to be read but subsequently rejected it outright. The BJP MLAs, expressing dissatisfaction with the Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee's silence on the issue, created a significant disturbance inside the House.
They demanded a statement from the Chief Minister, a request that was denied by the Speaker. The protest escalated as BJP women MLAs displayed black flags and caused disruption, prompting a noisy response from Trinamool women MLAs, including Chandrima Bhattacharya. The demonstration continued outside the assembly's main gate, with Agnimitra Paul asserting that they would persist with similar protests until Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee addresses the concerns regarding women's safety.
