Junior doctors protesting the rape and murder of a trainee doctor at RG Kar hospital reached West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee's residence on Saturday. Despite Banerjee’s earlier visit to their protest site and promise to address their demands, the meeting was delayed as doctors insisted on livestreaming the session. The Chief Minister had to wait for hours as the doctors’ videographer was barred from entering. Banerjee had previously waited two hours at the state secretariat for the doctors, but the meeting did not occur. The protest, ongoing for 35 days, demands better hospital security and action against officials.
