The protest, which she led throughout the night, escalated into her arrest as she demanded justice for the deceased child. Videos of her protest have circulated widely on social media, sparking discussions around the incident.

The Tragic Incident

Roopa Ganguly, now a prominent leader in the BJP, has landed in trouble after the death of a young schoolboy in Kolkata’s Bansdroni area. The boy lost his life after being hit by an excavation machine on Wednesday. Shocked and angered by the tragic accident, Roopa staged a peaceful protest outside the Bansdroni Police Station. However, by early Thursday morning, the actress was arrested for allegedly obstructing police work.

Roopa Ganguly Response to the Arrest

The Reasons Behind the Protest

The protest stems from the death of the schoolboy, which triggered outrage among locals. Roopa Ganguly’s protest aimed to hold authorities accountable, especially since she believed that justice was not being served in the case. She claimed that five people had been arrested in connection with the incident, but she was concerned they would be released without proper investigation. Roopa demanded stringent action against those involved, refusing to leave the station until her demands were met.

Kolkata Police’s Statement

He mentioned that several arrests had already been made, and legal procedures were underway. He further clarified that Roopa was asked to approach the court for relief if she had any concerns. Her refusal to cooperate with police instructions led to her arrest, as her presence was reportedly causing disruptions in the police station’s operations.

What’s Next for Roopa Ganguly?
