Modi listened like a guarding of the family

For twenty minutes, Modi heard their plight and gave them assurances of justice.

“They said that Modiji listened to them like a guardian of the family. They were afraid of the backlash from local TMC leaders after they returned to their villages. Many reached late, and we collected their detailed testimonies. We have already filed a writ petition with the Calcutta HC. These testimonies will be part of that,” said Priyanka Tibrewal, advocate and a Bengal BJP leader.

As this was going on, a few women who had arrived late to the event began to act agitatedly close to the stage, demanding to speak with Modi. They claimed that police had twice stopped their buses, once at Dak Bungalow More in Barasat and once at Biswa Bangla gate in New Town. The Bengal BJP promised to provide the PMO with these women’s testimonies.
