Renowned singer and composer Anupam Roy, famous for his 'Moner Manush' performance on Coke Studio, shared his thoughts on Twitter (now X). He wrote, "It has been a year since Swapnadeep's death. The culprit could not be identified. (JU ragging incident 2023) It has been 10 days since Maumita's tragic passing. A lot of confusion has been caused but justice? Can it be found at all?"

স্বপ্নদীপের মৃত্যুর এক বছর হয়ে গেছে। দোষী কে চিহ্নিত করা যায় নি। (JU ragging incident 2023)
মৌমিতার মর্মান্তিক চলে যাওয়ার ১০ দিন হতে চলল। প্রচুর বিভ্রান্তি সৃষ্টি হয়েছে কিন্তু বিচার? আদৌ পাওয়া যাবে কি?

Justice is a myth. #WeWantJustice #RGKAR #JusticeForMoumita
