Naushad said, “I’ve talked to the bereaved parents today. I was surprised to note that the police left the place of occurrence unguarded. We’ll wait for sometime and then start agitation on the issue.” He sharpened his attacks against the chief minister, saying, “It’s good to see she’s come on the road demanding capital punishment against the rapists of R G Kar hospital. But, why has she chosen the vindictive path of mass transfer of 43 medical persons. It’s a fascist idea to counter the protesters. She’s, as it seems, inviting a Bangladesh-like situation.”
Jewel said, “The chief minister should step down taking responsibilities of consecutive rape and murder across the state. I invite the tribal people to wake up immediately and organize a mass movement.”
