Kolkata Doctor’s Rape And Murder: Assam CM Urges Mamata Banerjee To Focus On Identifying Perpetrators
The Chief Minister called the incident tragic and urged Mamata Banerjee to focus on identifying the perpetrators and ensuring accountability.
“The incident that happened in Kolkata is very sad and the people of West Bengal and the entire country are in a state of shock. Mamata didi should avoid doing politics over the matter. She should focus on finding out who was behind the incident and fixing the accountability,” Himanta Biswa Sarma said while replying to a query on the West Bengal CM’s allegations.
“If you (Mamata Banerjee) do politics even after such a tragic incident, I believe this is very wrong. In such a time accusing others is wrong,” he added.
A postgraduate trainee doctor was allegedly raped and murdered while on duty at the state-run hospital on August 9.
