BJP Calls 12-Hour Bengal Bandh Over Missing Student Activists, Alleged Police Actions
Aug 27, 2024, 11:29 AM
The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) in West Bengal has called for a 12-hour bandh on August 28 in response to alleged police actions against student protesters in Kolkata. The protest, known as the Nabanna Abhijan, was organized against the backdrop of the RG Kar Medical College and Hospital rape-murder case. BJP leaders, including Union Minister and West Bengal BJP president Sukanta Majumdar, have accused the police and the state government, led by Mamata Banerjee, of using excessive force, including lathi charges, tear gas, and water cannons, on peaceful demonstrators. The BJP claims that four student activists have gone missing, although the Kolkata police have rejected these allegations. The bandh aims to protest the alleged suppression of democratic rights and demand the release of detained students.
