West Bengal Chief Minister's recent statement has ignited widespread outrage after she questioned the purpose of protests held in the name of a recent tragedy victim, saying, "The victim won't ever come back, so what's the point of doing protests in her name?" She further offered a 10 lakh rupee compensation to the victim's family, a move many found dismissive and callous.
Critics, including opposition leaders and human rights activists, have condemned the CM's remarks as deeply insensitive and out of touch, with the hashtag #IsSheEvenHuman trending on social media. The backlash has led to growing calls for a public apology and demands for her resignation, as many argue that such a statement undermines the gravity of the situation and the pursuit of justice. The controversy continues to escalate, with citizens and activists demanding accountability and meaningful action.
