Indian Opinion Analysis

By resorting to legal action rather than informal dialog or mediation efforts, TMC leader Kunal Ghosh signals his intent to protect personal reputation against perhaps defamatory accusations-a move highlighting concerns about accountability within sensitive cases involving systemic tragedy and justice challenges.
