Kolkata junior doctors, protesting the rape and murder of a trainee at RG Kar Medical College, agreed to meet CM Mamata Banerjee on the 33rd day of their strike. However, they set conditions, including an open-forum discussion streamed live, justice for the murdered doctor, and safety for women professionals. The West Bengal government invited a 12-15 member delegation for talks, but the doctors rejected an earlier meeting with the health secretary, demanding his resignation. The BJP criticized Banerjee for avoiding direct dialogue with the doctors.
