H.L Dattu and appraised him of the tremendous repression and atrocities committed by the West Bengal Police and State Government on the students and youth. The Students and youth were protesting against the malpractices in the appointment of primary teachers. A number of arrested students were girls. All these girls were taken to the Alipore Women’s Reformatory where they were made to strip completely and their bodies were groped. The filthiest sexist and abusive language was used by the Jail authorities.
The AIDWA strongly condemned these atrocities and has demanded action against the concerned authorities.
