Suvendu reports to Union home ministry on Durgapur incident
The Statesman Bhubaneswar
|October 14, 2025
The alleged gang-rape of a medical student in Durgapur has snowballed into a full-blown political storm in West Bengal, with the Opposition Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) launching a sharp attack on the Trinamul Congress (TMC) government.
Leader of the Opposition in West Bengal Assembly Suvendu Adhikari on Monday said he has "no faith" in the state police's handling of the case and was in constant touch with the Union home ministry, to which he has sent detailed reports on the incident.
In a strongly worded post on X, Adhikari wrote: "Mamata Banerjee, why are you trying to clarify your outdated medieval diktat that 'girls should not be allowed to go outside at night'? No one has distorted your words - the proof is annexed herewith. Your words are an attempt to mask your failure as an administrator."
