Siliguri, 24th August: The Trinamool Congress (TMC) party led by Siliguri Mayor Goutam Deb and Darjeeling District Trinamool Congress President Papiya Ghosh including other party workers rallied through various import roads in Siliguri and urged for the opening of all schools, colleges, shops and vehicular movements in the city, in the interest of the public.
In this regard, TMC leader Papiya Ghosh stated the incident of the killing of a schoolgirl in Siliguri to be highly condemnable, however, it is not justified to call for a bandh as normal life should continue in the interest of the public in view of the upcoming Puja. She added that the mother of the deceased is an active member of the party and the incident resulted in an irreparable loss to the family. Furthermore, she stated that the administration is actively working towards fulfilling its responsibilities.
