To Conceal Delays..."Focus on Mamata Banerjee's Letter Regarding Rape Incidents. 

The BJP accused Mamata Banerjee of being dishonest in her communications and asked why she has not taken action to enforce strict laws safeguarding women in her state. 

The Minister of Women and Child Development for the Union has replied to the second correspondence from Mamata Banerjee, the Chief Minister of West Bengal, requesting a strict legislation and severe penalties for grave offenses like rape and homicide. 

Ms Banerjee, in her second correspondence to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, requested a compulsory regulation for the timely resolution of rape and homicide incidents. The pair of communications arrived during the CBI probe into the sexual assault and killing of a young medical professional at RG Kar Medical College and Hospital in Kolkata. 


The BJP accused her of being dishonest in her letters and asked why she hasn't taken action to enforce strict rules and regulations to safeguard women in her state. 

In reference to the details provided in your correspondence regarding the situation of Fast Track Special Courts (FTSCs) and exclusive POCSO courts in West Bengal, I would like to inform you that based on the information received from the Calcutta High Court, West Bengal has set up 88 Fast Track Courts (FTCs) that differ from the Fast Track Special Courts (FTSCs) specified in the Central Government Scheme..." Annapurna Devi, the Minister of Women and Child Development, stated in her reply to Ms Banerjee. 


There are  48,600 pending rape and POCSO cases in West Bengal, the state has not activated 11 more FTSCs, which could be specialized POCSO courts or FTSCs that handle both rape and POCSO cases, as needed by the state. Ms Devi stated that the information provided in your letter is factually inaccurate and seems to be an attempt to conceal the delays in implementing the FTSCs by the state. 


BJP's co-incharge for West Bengal, Amit Malviya, has also raised concerns about the West Bengal Chief Minister's lack of effort in enforcing laws to safeguard the well-being of women and girls. 


Mr. Malviya stated in a post on X that Mamata Banerjee needs to clarify why the West Bengal government has not taken any steps to enforce the strict rules and guidelines designed to safeguard women and girls. Cease composing correspondence. Respond to the inquiries. You are responsible," he included. 


Ms Banerjee's request for full-time judicial officers in FTSCs, rather than just retired judicial officers as outlined in the FTSC scheme guidelines, was met with a response from the Women and Child Development Minister stating, "... I want to let you know that according to the guidelines of the program, there is one judge and seven employees assigned specifically to handle cases related to Rape and POCSO Act. Therefore, permanent judicial staff or court personnel cannot be assigned any extra fees for their services in handling FTSCs. This position was previously elucidated to the West Bengal state... 


The rape and killing of the junior doctor at RG Kar Medical College and Hospital in Kolkata has caused widespread anger throughout the country, prompting healthcare professionals to demand significant changes to guarantee respect and safety in their work environment. 

The Trinamool Congress has accused the BJP of politicizing the situation. The BJP has, however, shifted the blame towards Ms. Banerjee's party, accusing them of corrupt practices at the medical college. 

The ex-principal of the university, Sandip Ghosh, is currently being looked into. The Central Bureau of Investigation has also nabbed the main suspect, Sanjay Roy, a civic volunteer, who was captured on surveillance footage outside the meeting room of the hospital where the body of the young doctor was discovered.

Israel says Rafah is Hamas' last stronghold in the Gaza Strip.
