Trinamul Congress lambasted the BJP for its silence over the alleged rape and abuse of a doctor of a state-run hospital in Maharashtra, who recently committed suicide, unable to bear the shame and social stigma.
The unfortunate incident occurred at Satara. The girl was allegedly raped and abused for five months. The girl committed suicide after failing to get help from anyone. She wrote a suicide note where she narrated the incident.
Trinamul Congress in its X handle wrote: “Every time an unfortunate incident occurs in Bengal, @BJP4India unleashes its entire machinery to transform it into a grotesque spectacle of political mudslinging. But when horrors unfold in their own backyard, a deafening silence prevails.”
The party further wrote in the X handle: “This is the grim reality where the victims are shoved to the edge, forced to choose death over a futile quest for justice. After all, who can deliver it when the very guardians of law and order are the most vicious perpetrators of crimes against women? And the most damning part? You will witness zero moral outrage from @BJP4India’s leadership; no protest or calls @Dev_ Fadnavis’s resignation; not a whisper from the obedient godi media an absolute inaction from @NCWIndia.”
Trinamul Congress spokesperson Arup Chakraborty said Beti Padao, Beti Bachao is a big farce. “Girls are most unsafe in the double engine government. In Maharashtra, Gujarat, Madhya Pradesh girls are abused and harassed everyday but their complaints are not registered and finally, the rapists are given a red carpet welcome when they come out of prison.”
