BJP Fact-Finding Team Blasts TMC over Kolkata Law College Scandal

The BJP's fact-finding team has raised concerns about the investigation into an alleged gang rape at a law college in Kolkata. The team accused local authorities of negligence and questioned the appointment of individuals with criminal backgrounds in educational roles.

The team members criticized West Bengal's governance, particularly the safety of women, highlighting the state's ineffectiveness in addressing crimes against women despite a female leader at the helm. They cited the casual appointment of individuals with criminal records as a sign of systemic issues.

Despite assurances from Kolkata's Police Commissioner, the team remained skeptical, alleging state-protected crime under the TMC's rule. The report will be forwarded to BJP leader JP Nadda, as the team plans further action to ensure justice and safety.
