The Kolkata doctor rape and murder case has sparked outrage across India. A nationwide protest has erupted. BJP leader Shehzad Poonawalla has criticized West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee in the wake of the tragic rape and murder of a woman resident doctor at RG Kar Medical College and Hospital. Poonawalla highlighted that the Calcutta High Court`s decision to transfer the investigation to the CBI indicates a lack of trust in the state government`s handling of the case. He accused Banerjee of failing in her constitutional and moral duties, suggesting she should resign immediately. Poonawalla further condemned her for allegedly trivializing the violence that occurred on August 14-15 by attributing it to political factions, accusing her party, TMC, of an anti-Hindu bias and failing to address the grave incident with the seriousness it demands.
