Meanwhile, BJP MLA Agnimitra Paul and other legislators walked out of the assembly after they tried to move adjournment motion in the assembly against atrocities on women all across Bengal.

“The people of Bengal will soon get relief. We are all trying to bring relief. Every day, girls and women are tortured and they feel unsafe. BJP’s women MLAs have protested inside the state assembly. Women BJP workers led by Mohila Morcha chief Falguni Patra have started sit-in protests for 48 hours, starting from today protesting atrocities against women,” Suvendu Adhiakri said.

“BJP is worried about women’s protection and will continue to protest both inside and outside the assembly,” he said, adding, “We will again raise the law & order situation and torture on women in the assembly. An adjournment motion will be brought tomorrow in the state assembly.”

“Several incidents happened in Bengal. A teenaged student was allegedly gangraped and she died in hospital today. In Malda, two tribal women were stripped, beaten and forced to sit in the police station naked,” Paul said, after walking out the assembly. She emphasized that the issues of torture on women related to Bengal must be discussed and then, they are ready to discuss Manipur.Meanwhile, the fact-finding team of BJP MPs, led by former minister Ravi Shankar Prasad, which investigated the Panchayat poll violence in the Panchayat elections in the state, submitted its report to BJP’s national president Jagat Prakash Nadda on Wednesday.
