Junior doctors from Kolkata's medical colleges staged an all-night protest near Lalbazar, the Kolkata Police headquarters, demanding Police Commissioner Vineet Goyal's resignation. Accusing Goyal of mishandling the August 9 rape and murder investigation of a trainee doctor at RG Kar Medical College, the doctors vowed to continue protesting until all demands are met. "We are seeking the police commissioner’s resignation. Till the police allow us near Lalbazar, we will not go back," said Arnab Mukherjee, a postdoctoral trainee. Despite the arrest of ex-principal Sandip Ghosh in a corruption case, protesters stressed that justice and healthcare worker safety remain their main concerns.
