Former Indian cricket captain Sourav Ganguly has changed his social media profile picture to black in solidarity with protests demanding justice for a trainee doctor raped and murdered at Kolkata's RG Kar Medical College. This move comes after Ganguly faced backlash for his earlier comments dismissing the incident as an isolated case. Critics accused him of downplaying the severity of the crime, prompting a wave of criticism online. Ganguly has since expressed his dismay at the crime and called for severe punishment for the perpetrators. The CBI is investigating the case, with one arrest made so far.
