Kolkata: Demanding a CBI inquiry into the gang rape and death of a 16-year-old girl, state Congress president Pradip Bhattacharya today said West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee should resign due to police inaction in arresting the culprits. “We want a CBI inquiry into the gang rape and the death of this girl. What happened is barbaric and heinous,” said Bhattacharya. [caption id=“attachment_1318283” align=“alignleft” width=“380”]  Representational image.

It is a shame, never before such kinds of things happened in Bengal,” he said. There was a tussle between the supporters of the Left parties and Kolkata Police personnel last night over cremation of the body of the girl, who died in a city hospital yesterday due to injuries sustained when she attempted suicide by immolating herself on 23 December.
