New Delhi: Amidst the backlash on social media following the announcement of her participation in a protest against the rape and murder of a trainee woman doctor at RG Kar Medical College and Hospital, the ruling Trinamool Congress on Friday clarified the reasons behind West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee’s decision to lead the rally.
While TMC Rajya Sabha MP Derek O’Brien said the public “outrage is entirely understandable”, he explained why Mamata Banerjee decided to lead the rally on August 17.
“‘Why is @MamataOfficial leading a rally on the RG Kar Hospital incident”? Fair question. Because: CBI, which is now handling the case, must give daily updates on the investigation. The deadline given by the CM to Kolkata Police to complete the investigation was August 17. The same must apply to CBI. Kolkata Police has arrested one accused. Justice will happen only when CBI nabs ALL involved and sends case to a fast-track court,” Derek O’Brien wrote on social media platform X (formally Twitter).
