An unidentified woman’s disfigured body was found in a paddy field under Harishchandrapur police station in Malda district on Sunday. Police said the woman’s face was burned with acid.

SP, Malda, Pradeep Kumar Yadav said, “The woman’s identity is not known yet. The body was recovered and sent for post-mortem examination. An investigation into the incident has started.”

Meanwhile, the BJP criticised the state government for failing to ensure women’s safety in Bengal. In a post on ‘X’, the BJP’s state unit wrote: “Even during the Durga Puja, women in Bengal continue to face harassment. Despite having a female Chief Minister, women remain vulnerable. Mamata fails terribly in ensuring women’s safety!”

Reacting to the allegations, state minister Shashi Panja tweeted: “If only BJP was quick to seek justice in their own states, then their ‘Nari Shakti’ slogan would stand true. But under their selective outrage, there’s no justice for women in Manipur, wrestlers or Bilkis Bano.”
