Post RG Kar Medical College rape and murder voices of dissent continued to rumble within the ruling Trinamool Congress with senior Rajya Sabha MP Sukhendushekhar Roy on Wednesday posting an appeal to the people to wrest back the right to live with dignity enshrined in Article 21 of the Constitution.
Roy who had earlier shared a photograph depicting the fall of Bastille Fort — that marked the beginning of the French Revolution and fall of Emperor Louis XVI — and followed it up with a another post showing an uprooted middle stump soon after the arrest of former RG Kar principal Sandip Ghosh said that he indeed meant what he said.
"A time has come when the people should seize their right to live and live with dignity given in our Constitution," Roy a veteran TMC leader said. "If this incident in RG Kar Medical College would not shiver you with dread then nothing will … I am not a robot … I too am a human being who has feelings, emotions and who has a duty to speak up when need be … this is one such occasion to stand up and make your voice heard… In addition to reclaiming the nights a time has come when all should make the big effort to reclaim the Right to Live with Dignity given to us by the Constitution."
