The tragic rape and murder of a trainee doctor at RG Kar Medical College in Kolkata has ignited widespread protests and calls for the resignation of West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee. Former Union Minister Pratima Bhoumik and other BJP leaders have accused Banerjee of failing to ensure women's safety and have referred to her government as a 'Taliban-like' regime. The Calcutta High Court has expressed a lack of faith in the state's handling of the investigation, leading to a CBI inquiry. Protests have spread across the country, with doctors demanding justice and the implementation of protective measures for women. Meanwhile, Banerjee has pledged support for the protesting doctors but faces mounting criticism for her government's response to the violence. The CPI(M)-led Left Front has also joined the calls for her resignation amid concerns over law and order in the state.
