There is anger across the country even today over the horrific incident that happened with the female doctor at RG Kar Medical College and Hospital in Kolkata. Junior doctors are on the streets demanding justice and workplace safety. They continued their hunger strike for the third consecutive day on Monday.

Six junior doctors sat on an indefinite hunger strike on Saturday evening. Later another doctor sat on a dharna with them.

 

Until the demands are met...: Aniket Mahato

 

Junior doctor Aniket Mahato, who was protesting, said, "Our indefinite hunger strike continues. We have not received any response from the state government. We will continue it until all our demands are met. No external pressure will stop us from demanding justice. This is the time of now and never." These people are on indefinite hunger strike

 

Let us tell you, that Mahato of RG Kar Hospital, Snigdha Hazra, Tanaya Panja and Anustup Mukhopadhyay of Kolkata Medical College, Arnab Mukhopadhyay of SSKM Hospital, Pulastha Acharya of NRS Medical College and Sayantani Ghosh Hazra of KPC Medical College are on hunger strike.

 

Accusation against police

 

The junior doctors also accused the Kolkata Police of not cooperating. They say that the police did not allow them to keep bio-toilets at the protest site near Dorina Crossing in the Dharmatala area of ​​the city.

 

Doctors installed CCTV cameras.

 

At the same time, doctors have installed CCTV cameras to maintain transparency at the place where the protest is being held. A large number of people and some celebrities reached the spot to support the doctors sitting on the strike.

 

It is worth noting that the junior doctors had announced a complete strike on Friday. This affected health services in state-run medical colleges and hospitals. The protesting doctors stressed that their priority is to get justice for the victim doctor. They also called for the immediate removal of Health Secretary NS Nigam and fixing accountability.
