In Kolkata, junior doctors protesting the rape-murder case have refused to attend a scheduled meeting with Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee unless it is live-streamed. The West Bengal government sent a third invite for talks, which the doctors welcomed, but insisted on live broadcasting for transparency. Chief Secretary Manoj Pant stated that while the meeting can be recorded, live-streaming is not crucial. Despite the CM waiting for over an hour, the doctors' demand remains unmet. The delegation of 30 junior doctors, who arrived at the state secretariat Nabanna, outlined five demands including calls for resignations and college elections.
