During Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee's speech at the Kellogg College, a group of student protestors showed up with placards, raising questions over violence in and rape in West Bengal.
West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee was confronted by left-wing student protesters during her maiden speech at the Kellogg College, Oxford University in London on Thursday. A group of students - belonging to the UK unit of the CPI(M)'s Students' Federation of India (SFI), showed up with placards during her speech. They raised questions over violence during the 2023 panchayat elections, the rape of a minor girl allegedly by the son of a Trinamool Congress leader, and Ms Banerjee's 2012 statement on why rapes happen - men and women interact more freely now, like an open market.
SFI-UK held a demonstration in Kellogg College, Oxford against Mamata Banerjee's speech. We opposed her blatant lies by asking her for evidence of the social development she claims to pioneer. Instead of allowing us to peacefully express our opinions, the police were called. pic.twitter.com/pj0WRpvZUa
