Dharmanagar town has been gripped by intense tension following a heartbreaking incident that has sparked widespread public anger. 

The unnatural death of Prasenjit Sarkar, a resident of the Kameshwar area and a delivery worker employed with a private company, has shocked the local community.

According to allegations, Prasenjit was publicly assaulted after a dispute with a group of young men and women. A video of the incident later went viral on social media, subjecting him to severe humiliation. Unable to cope with the mental trauma and emotional distress caused by the incident, Prasenjit reportedly took his own life by hanging.

In protest against this tragic death and demanding exemplary punishment for those responsible, youths of Dharmanagar took to the streets on Monday. Holding banners reading “We Want Justice,” protesters first staged a road blockade at the Dharmanagar Old Motor Stand area. Later, they marched towards the office of the Superintendent of Police.

The protesters demanded the immediate arrest of all those involved in the incident. They warned that if the accused are not arrested within 24 hours, the youth of Dharmanagar would launch a larger agitation.

Following the incident, tension continues to prevail across the area, while residents closely watch the response and actions of the administration.
