The father of a 23-year-old MBBS student gang-raped in Durgapur, West Bengal, criticized Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee for her remarks on women stepping out late at night. Banerjee had questioned how the student left the campus at 12:30 am, while police records show the incident occurred around 8 pm. The father said, “She is also a woman. How can she say such an irresponsible thing?” He added that his daughter’s safety and career come first and plans to take her back to Odisha. Four people have been arrested. West Bengal police promised strict action and expressed deep regret. (PC: NDTV)
