Railways promise all help to CU girls

on Tuesday, April 19, 2011
KOLKATA: When the Amritsar Mail reached Howrah on Monday, the CU students molested by goons in the train lodged a written complaint with the GRP. Senior GRP officials, however, said that they could do little in the matter. "This did not happen within our jurisdiction. We shall forward the complaint to Patna where the incident took place," said Rabindranath Mukherjee, superintendent of railway police, Howrah.

Eastern Railway officials were unaware of the incident. "No complaint was lodged with us. However, we shall provide all assistance if the police approach us," an official said. Barely a week ago, a budding volleyball player was thrown off a running train near Bareilly in Uttar Pradesh by a group of snatchers. She lost one of her legs due to the fall. None of the miscreants could be arrested. While railways minister Mamata Banerjee immediately announced a job in the railways for the victim and monetary assistance poured in from various quarters, it is clear that no lessons were learnt.
