The committee will submit its report at the earliest, the order said. BJP national General Secretary Arun Singh said in a statement as per IANS, "National President Jagat Prakash Nadda has nominated a five-member fact-finding committee to visit the place of rape and murder of minor girl at Hanskhali, Nadia, West Bengal. The committee will submit its report at the earliest."
The panel consists of Lok Sabha member and national vice president Rekha Verma, Uttar Pradesh Cabinet minister Baby Rani Maurya, member Tamil Nadu Assembly and nation president of party women wing Vanathi Srinivasan, special invitee national executive committee Kushbu Sunder and Sreerupa Mitra Choudhury, MLA West Bengal.
Earlier this month, a 14-year-old girl died after she was allegedly gang-raped in Nadia district. The victim's family has accused the son of a Trinamool Congress (TMC) panchayat leader in the case. The accused has been sent to 14-day judicial custody, ANI reported.
West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee received flak after she questioned if the victim was "actually raped or had a love affair" that got her pregnant.
