The incidents were in the same area - the Birbhum district - where a similar case took place four months ago.
Locals say that the women were being punished for "having close relations" with men from other communities.
Birbhum police spokesman Humayun Kabir told the BBC that the two women in the latest incidents had filed cases.
Superintendent Kabir said that reports about one of them committing suicide could not be confirmed. More...
