A year has been passed since the brutal rape and murder case of R.G. Kar junior doctor, a justice rally led by her grieving parents and BJP leaders turned violent near Kolkata’s Park Street. Protesters clashed with police after changing their march route unexpectedly, prompting a baton charge. The victim’s mother alleged she was shoved, pinned down, and struck on the head, resulting in visible injuries and hospitalization. Police denied the assault, citing injuries among their own personnel and claiming the march violated court-approved protest zones. The rally, part of the Nabanna Abhijan, drew over 1,000 participants. The incident has reignited public outrage over delayed justice and raised serious concerns about police conduct and protest rights. (PC: The Telegraph & The Times of India)
