Woman who filed complaint against Bengal Governor moves top court
By PBNews The petitioner urged the top court to “frame guidelines and qualification to the extent the immunity given under Article 361 can be exercised by the office of… Governor”.
A contractual woman employee of the West Bengal Raj Bhavan, who had accused Governor C V Ananda Bose of sexual harassment, has moved the Supreme Court seeking direction to the police to investigate the matter.
“This court has to decide whether a victim like the petitioner can be rendered remediless, with the only option being to wait for the accused to demit his office, which delay will then be inexplainable during the trial, and render the entire procedure a mere lip service, without any justice to the victim herein,” the plea said.
The woman had lodged a complaint with Kolkata Police.
