"The situation is so grave, that the victims are not being allowed to lodge police complaints against miscreants sponsored by the ruling party. They are being pressurised to withdraw the complaints."

"Over 15,000 false cases have been slapped against leftist workers and leaders, and property worth several crores have been looted," the statement said.
