CGiii Comment

On February 21, 2011, two young girls committed suicide together in Nandigram, one of the interior villages in West Bengal. They were the victims of non-acceptance of the village community as well as of their families.

One of the girls had been married off in haste. Under such societal pressure, the two girls committed suicide. But their death did not end societal non-acceptance. After their death their bodies lay in the police morgue for several days unclaimed by their families.

One of the girls left a letter telling their story of love and loathing and asking their parents to cremate them together. The parents rejected their wish and the unclaimed bodies were disposed of by the police, unattended, uncared for.
