Mamata's Misogyny? Row Over 'Why Was She Out at 12:30' Remark on Rape Survivor | India Today

A political firestorm has erupted over West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee’s comments following a gang rape case, where she questioned why the student was out late at night. On this special report, with host Preeti Choudhry, BJP’s Sanju Verma, TMC supporter Monujeet Mondal, and political commentator Shikha Mukherjee debate the CM’s history of controversial statements on crimes against women. ‘Mamata Banerjee is a repeat offender,’ alleges BJP National Spokesperson Sanju Verma. The discussion revisits past incidents, including the Park Street rape case, which Banerjee allegedly called a ‘fabricated incident’. While the TMC defends the government’s police action and counters with crimes in BJP-ruled states, Mukherjee provides analysis on the deeply entrenched patriarchal mindset that influences such reactions from political leaders across India.
