National Commission for Women (NCW) chairperson Rekha Sharma on February 19 visited violence-affected Sandeshkhali and sought the imposition of President’s Rule in the State.
“I do not think that anything is possible without the imposition of the President’s rule in the State,” Ms. Sharma told journalists. She also demanded that Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee resign over the developments at Sandeshkhali.
The NCW chairperson said that she has received 18 complaints from the women in Sandeshkhali out of which two are of rape. She said that the women were not ready to go to the police station and she accompanied them to the police to register their complaint.
