Kolkata (West Bengal) [India], August 22: BJP leader Dilip Ghosh has demanded the resignation of West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee following the sexual assault and murder of a trainee doctor.

Ghosh said, “The Bengal and the entire country are on the road due to the incident that has happened. The country is ashamed of the way the CM is trying to protect the accused. Today, the SC judge has said that I haven’t seen such a thing in 30 years of my career. The entire administration needs cleansing and also, the CM, Mamata Banerjee must be changed. The accused must be punished and those who are protecting the accused must be thrown out of power.”
West Bengal Leader of Opposition Suvendu Adhikari echoed Ghosh’s sentiments, stating, “We, the Bengal BJP are protesting demanding justice for the victim and resignation of CM Mamata Banerjee. BJP is fighting, justice should be done and the CM should resign immediately.”
