West Bengal Governor C V Ananda Bose, who was originally set to visit Chopra, altered his plans and met the victims of a recent flogging incident in Cooch Behar on Tuesday morning, sources revealed. Bose landed in Bagdogra from New Delhi and went straight to Cooch Behar, where the victims were awaiting him.
According to an official from PTI, the Governor began interacting with the victims at the Cooch Behar circuit house to gather more details about the incident. Bose will decide later whether to continue with his planned visit to Chopra, based on his findings and the victims' request to meet him in Cooch Behar.
Governor Bose had previously requested a report on the incident from Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee. The police registered a case on Sunday after a video of the Friday incident went viral on social media, prompting widespread outrage.
