This video is said to be from Taltala Club, Dum Dum, Greater Kolkata.
A hapless woman is being held in the air by men and two men are thrashing her on her semi-exposed hips. Social media users have identified close associates of senior leaders of the ruling TMC, although an official statement is not yet published. The woman is screaming in pain. It is another street justice court, or ‘insaaf sabha’. It is fair to assume this is a regular occurrence.
Our take: West Bengal has a woman CM and has more female MPs than any other state. Yet the regular organised atrocities against women are not getting highlighted. This is more proof that politics will not serve women as it will always be dominated by those with more brute force.
We should be ashamed as a nation that this is happening in 2024, and seems to be growing.
