The little one, who returned residence on Sunday with one other worker of the store, was admitted at a authorities hospital within the Kalna sub-division the place the household lives in a village.
“A case has been registered on the basis of a complaint lodged by the family. We have started an investigation,” an officer from the Kalna police station informed HT.
The little one’s father mentioned poverty pressured him to ship his second son to Gujarat.
“I am an agricultural labourer with no fixed income. I have three more children. Two years ago, a man from another village told me he can employ my son at a jewellery shop in Rajkot. He promised a salary of ₹3,500 a month. My son is saying he was beaten up everyday for not eating the food he was offered,” the daddy informed the media.
“The shop owner used to call up once in two months to let our son talk to us. But our son never dared to say anything about his trauma in the presence of that man. We were shocked to see him bruised and wounded all over when another employee of the shop brought him back,” the boy’s mom mentioned.
Gautam Biswas, deputy superintendent of the hospital, mentioned the kid had a number of accidents and was detected with anaemia when he was admitted.
“He is traumatised as well. There are multiple injuries, especially on the back and the legs. He is being treated for anaemia,” the physician informed the media.
The ruling Trinamool Congress (TMC) focused the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Wednesday afternoon.
“In PM @narendramodi’s double engine state Gujarat, child labour is not only perpetuated but also accompanied by dehumanising treatment! …a young child from Kalna, was forced to work in a jewellery factory in Gujarat, where he was brutally assaulted, resulting in severe injuries and lasting trauma,” TMC wrote on X.
“In their contempt for Bengal, @BJP4India is openly condoning these heinous acts against our people. Smt. @MamataOfficial-led GoWB is taking all necessary measures to ensure his well-being and safety,” the publish added.
There was no response from BJP leaders in West Bengal to TMC’s costs until Wednesday night.
