Twelve days after the rape and murder of a doctor at the R. G. Kar Medical College and Hospital, there has been no let-up in the protests, with over a dozen rallies organised across Kolkata on Wednesday (August 21, 2024).
West Bengal Governor C. V. Ananda Bose visited the residence of the victim and met her family. The Governor left for the deceased doctor’s house straight from the airport after returning from New Delhi, where he met President Droupadi Murmu. Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee had visited the residence of the victim on August 12.
