Kolkata rape-murder case: Protest continues as Mamata govt rejects doctors' preconditions for talks | 10 updates

Hindustan Times  

Kolkata doctor rape-murder case updates: The West Bengal government on Wednesday declined junior doctors' demands for chief minister Mamata Banerjee's presence and a live broadcast as conditions for negotiations to end the month-long 'cease work' protest over the alleged rape and murder of a 31-year-old woman doctor at RG Kar Medical College and Hospital on August 9. On the 33rd day of protests, with doctors staging a sit-in outside Swasthya Bhawan in Kolkata for a second day, minister of state for health Chandrima Bhattacharya expressed the government's willingness to engage in talks but hinted that “political forces” could be influencing the protests. The medics quickly refuted these claims, calling them unfounded, and vowed to continue their protests until their demands were met, news agency PTI reported While the minister urged the doctors to respect the Supreme Court's order and return to work, she avoided commenting on whether the government would take any punitive measures against those violating the court's directive. Latest updates on Kolkata doctor rape-murder case: The Bengal government invited the protesting doctors to a meeting at the state secretariat, Nabanna, on Wednesday at 6pm, but did not confirm if Mamata Banerjee would attend.
