Exercise restraint, TMC leader warns WB protesters

Wednesday, 04 September 2024 | Saugar Sengupta | Kolkata

Days after Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee advised her party men to "hiss if not bite the detractors who spread canards against her Government," on the RG Kar Medical College rape and murder case, a Trinamool Congress leader has publicly warned the agitators to exercise restraint or see their women getting openly humiliated.

"This is my warning to all those protesters who are passing bad remarks against Mamata Banerjee … if they do not stop doing so then we will paste indecent photographs of their mothers and sisters outside their houses … no one will be allowed to tear those posters off and no one will be able to stop us from doing so … so I ask these people to stop protesting illegally," Atish Sarkar a senior Trinamool Congress Leader from North 24 Parganas said in a public meeting leading to massive public outcry.

Elsewhere, TMC MLA Lovely Mitra from a public warned the opposition workers including their Leaders to stop raising their fingers at the Government. "We know how to take care of you … if you don't stop this mischief then you will feel the consequences," said Mitra whose husband is an IPS officer.

For the first time perhaps in its 13 years' rule the TMC has been under an unprecedented pressure with the common citizens from all walks of life descending on the streets on a regular basis against a degenerated system.

While the TMC leadership suspended the North 24 Parganas Leader for one year, the agitating doctors immediately demanded his arrest. "The statement made by this man shows what respect his superiors  have for the women of the State … the RG Kar incident is just a product of that mentality and we want a change in that mentality which can only take place if there is a change in the system," said Dr S Roychowdhury one of the specialist doctors.

Ankush an advocate in Calcutta High Court said that such statements made against the women were defamatory in nature and should lead to immediate arrest. "He should have been arrested immediately" he said.
