With an eye on the 2026 Bengal Assembly elections, the CPM is planning to expand the movement surrounding the R G Kar female PGT rape and murder case from Kolkata to remote and rural areas of the state after the upcoming puja season.
In the wake of R G Kar rape and murder of a trainee doctor, a training programme was held for girls, teaching them mainly self-defence techniques and how to strengthen their minds.
Show-cause notices were issued by the education department to three schools in Howrah for protesting on the R G Kar issue.
