Pan-India protests against the rape and murder of a Kolkata doctor intensified on Saturday with fresh calls for Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee to resign. The mother of Nirbhaya — the victim of the 2012 Delhi gang rape case — joined the discussion on Saturday with a scathing indictment of the TMC chief. Asha Devi claimed that Mamata was trying to ‘divert attention’ by holding protests instead of using her power to act against the culprits.
