WATCH: Locals in Maharashtra block railway track at Badlapur station

Locals in Maharashtra’s Badlapur blocked the railway tracks on Tuesday to protest against the sexual assault of two children, aged four, by a 23-year-old attendant in their school`s washroom. The protest by locals on the railway tracks led to disruptions of train services. 

After the incident came to light, Shiv Sena (Uddhav Balasaheb Thackeray) lawmaker Priyanka Chaturvedi took to X and wrote: "Two young girls were sexually assaulted in Badlapur, Maharashtra in the school premises; the entire state is outraged and seeks justice. I once again urge the @rashtrapatibhvn to approve the Maharashtra Shakti Criminal Law , no other child or woman face this travesty. Shame on the state government to continue to ignore the safety of women."

She added, "These were nursery going girls, this incident happened in school premises. Sick perverts in our society want women to dress in a ‘decent way’, to step out during ‘safe hours’ and work in‘ safe zones’ , take charge of their ‘own safety’ what would youll say to this?"

The police said the incident came to light after one of the kids revealed the incident to her parents. When her parents spoke to the other child’s family, they said their daughter was scared of going to school. The parents of the both the kids then approached the police, where a case was filed against the accused. The police said they have arrested him. 

According to the police, there is no female attendant at female washrooms. They have also alleged that the school does not have CCTV cameras and lacks safety measures for kids.

After news about the incident spread among locals, they protested outside the school and also blocked the railway tracks. According to some reports, autorickshaw unions and school bus operators are also likely to join the call for the bandh on Tuesday to protest against the incident.
