Kolkata, 13/10: A fresh political slugfest erupted on Monday after the alleged gang rape of a medical student in Durgapur, as the TMC and BJP locked horns over the fate of the stalled Aparajita Bill, the Mamata Banerjee government’s proposed law to toughen punishment for crime against women.
While the opposition BJP accused her government of “completely failing” to ensure women’s safety in the state, the ruling TMC hit back, blaming the Narendra Modi government at the Centre for “sitting” on the Aparajita Bill.
