Women in West Bengal's Sandeshkhali, protesting alleged sexual assault by TMC leader Shahjahan Sheikh and supporters, claim it's unsafe to live there despite arrests. Accusing Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee of neglect, they express disappointment over her not meeting them. One woman emphasizes, "It is becoming very risky to live here...Uttam Sardar and Shibu Hazra have been arrested but they have not been punished yet." BJP criticizes TMC, asserting women's safety concerns. BJP MP Locket Chatterjee accuses police of siding with TMC and challenges Mamata's silence. The Supreme Court dismisses PIL for CBI probe, deferring to Calcutta High Court's cognizance. Mamata accuses BJP of disrupting peace in Sandeshkhali, vowing action against wrongs.
