Protests Erupt in Bengal Over Doctor's Murder
Mass protests in Kolkata have erupted following the brutal rape and murder of a 31-year-old doctor at RG Kar Medical College and Hospital, with thousands demanding justice and immediate government action. Notable figures from the Bengali film industry, including Aparna Sen, joined the protests, pledging to remain in the city’s Esplanade area until their demands are met. The 'Justice for RG Kar' campaign has gained nationwide attention, evidenced by a mountaineering team unfurling a justice banner atop the Kang Yatze peak in Ladakh. Allegations have also surfaced about police inaction and complicity, with protesters claiming that a police volunteer allowed the accused to escape. The ongoing protests have garnered support from various societal sectors, including junior doctors and school students, highlighting a growing concern over women's safety in West Bengal. Amidst calls for accountability, President Droupadi Murmu has voiced her concern, urging the nation to confront the persistent violence against women.
