Kolkata residents held a candlelight protest on Wednesday to demand justice for the trainee doctor who was raped and murdered at RG Kar Medical College. From 9 pm to 10 pm, people across the city switched off their lights as a symbolic "lights out" protest. The doctor’s father revealed that he had to beg the police to see his daughter’s body. Protests extended beyond Kolkata, with AIIMS doctors in Delhi also participating. The case has sparked nationwide outrage, leading to the arrest of a civic volunteer and the former college principal for related offenses.
