The standoff between protesting junior doctors and the Mamata Banerjee government in West Bengal continued as both sides failed to reach an agreement after a series of dramatic email exchanges. The doctors, demanding justice for the RG Kar rape-murder case, set conditions for the meeting, including a face-to-face discussion with the chief minister and a larger delegation. The state government rejected these demands, with Chief Secretary Manoj Pant stating that talks cannot proceed under such conditions. The doctors, sitting in protest for over 24 hours, expressed disappointment with the government's stance.
