Political leaders meet Baruipur victim's parents, assure support
Adhikari met the girl's parents at the office of the SP of Baruipur Police district and assured them of strict action against the culprits. Senior police officers were also present at the meeting.
Adhikari had on Monday said that the culprits would get capital punishment. He had expressed happiness that the family of the deceased reposed trust in the government.
Leaders of various political parties too met the family of the 11-year-old girl on Tuesday and assured them of support in their fight for justice.
A BJP delegation led by state Urban Development Minister Agnimitra Paul and former MP Locket Chatterjee met the girl's family.
"The family told us that they are satisfied with the government's role and that they have faith in Chief Minister Suvendu Adhikari," Paul claimed.
The minister said strict action should be taken in cases of crimes against women and if any negligence is found on the part of the police or the administration, they will not be spared.
TMC MPs Kakoli Ghosh Dastidar and Sayani Ghosh, who recently joined the Nationalist Citizens Party of India (NCPI), also met the parents of the victim.
"We demand the maximum punishment for those responsible for this heinous crime. The administration is taking steps to ensure that justice is delivered," Ghosh Dastidar said.
"It is a deeply painful incident. It feels as if this has happened to my own daughter. We have assured the family that we will stand by them in every possible way," she said.
Police initially prevented the NCPI delegation from entering the area but later allowed them to proceed.
Ghosh, who is the local MP, also faced protests.
Ghosh, the Jadavpur MP, said the government's response after such an incident was important.
"Everyone wants the maximum punishment. After an incident takes place, it is important to see what action the government takes and how quickly justice is ensured," she said.
Leader of the Opposition Ritabrata Banerjee also visited the family along with rebel TMC leaders Chandrima Bhattacharya and Seuli Saha.
