A 24-year-old first-year law student was gang-raped inside South Calcutta Law College on June 25, triggering outrage across West Bengal. Four have been arrested, including TMC student leader Monojit Mishra. CCTV footage confirms the survivor’s allegations. The National Commission for Women’s Archana Majumder accused police of non-cooperation and attempting a cover-up. She also revealed the survivor's family is under immense pressure. TMC’s Madan Mitra and Kalyan Banerjee faced backlash over survivor-shaming remarks. BJP has formed a fact-finding committee demanding Mamata Banerjee’s resignation. The case has revived memories of the 2024 RG Kar rape-murder incident and intensified scrutiny of campus security in Kolkata. (PC: India Today)
