Kolkata-West Bengal Governor CV Ananda Bose has sent the Aparajita Woman and Child (West Bengal Criminal Laws Amendment) Bill 2024' to President Droupadi Murmu, citing a number of loopholes in it.

According to reports, Governor CV Ananda Bose sent the bill to President Droupadi Murmu with a number of loopholes. The bill was passed by the state assembly in the aftermath of the gruesome rape and murder of a trainee doctor at RG Kar hospital in Kolkata on the 9th of last month.

The governor said in a post on social media last evening that the bill has been prepared in a hurry. He also held the state secretariat responsible for not sending the technical report along with the bill and said it is a failure on their part. Referring to the RG Kar issue, the governor said it is the duty of the state government to ensure justice for the family of the victim without waiting for the bill.
