Mamata Banerjee blames Left, BJP for hospital vandalism, to lead protest rally today
Mamata Banerjee said on Friday that 'Ram and Baam' (BJP-CPIM) were responsible for creating the mayhem at RG Kar Hospital on Wednesday night.
«Whatever I have seen in the videos...some had the national flag, who are from the BJP, while someone was carrying a DYFI flag,» she said, speaking on the attack at the hospital. She added that fake videos were doing the rounds on social media and urged all to be cautious about such videos.
«I am not blaming the students. Some outsider political party elements 'Baam and Ram' (Left and BJP) have come together to make the disturbance. The incident is unfortunate. We will hold a protest procession to demand capital punishment of the accused,» Banerjee said.
She said she will take to the streets on Friday to demand capital punishment for the accused.
«We have extended all documents and evidence to the CBI following the court order. The death is very sad and we extend solidarity to the family. Yesterday, a similar incident happened in UP and another in MP. These are extraordinary crimes. There is only one punishment for this — hang them — so that others will dread to do such crimes in future,» Banerjee said.
«We decided that if we cannot solve the murder case by Sunday, we will give it to the CBI. I took the discussion after talking with the parents,» she explained.
Speaking outside the Raj Bhavan, where she went to join the customary high tea on the occasion of Independence Day, Banerjee said that she had come to the Raj Bhavan to take part in the Independence Day
