Junior Doctors in Kolkata Stage Night-Long Protest, Demand Police Commissioner’s Resignation

Kolkata witnessed a dramatic night as junior doctors staged a night-long protest demanding the resignation of the city’s Police Commissioner. The protest, sparked by allegations of police misconduct during a recent medical students’ rally, has brought to the fore the simmering tensions between the medical community and law enforcement in the city. The junior doctors, who have been at the forefront of healthcare in the state, are now channeling their frustration into demands for accountability and justice.

The protest, which took place outside the police headquarters, saw hundreds of junior doctors holding placards and chanting slogans through the night. Their anger stems from an incident where they claim police officers used excessive force to disperse a peaceful rally organized by medical students. The doctors allege that several of their colleagues were injured in the process, and they are now demanding the resignation of the Police Commissioner as a show of accountability.

The protest has garnered widespread attention, with support pouring in from various quarters, including senior doctors, medical associations, and civil society groups. The junior doctors have vowed to continue their agitation until their demands are met, even as the city’s healthcare system grapples with the impact of their absence.

The standoff between the junior doctors and the police has escalated tensions in Kolkata, with the state government urging both sides to find a resolution. However, the doctors remain steadfast in their demands, arguing that the incident is part of a larger pattern of disrespect and mistreatment faced by healthcare professionals.

As the protest continues, the situation remains volatile, with the potential for further escalation if a compromise is not reached. The junior doctors’ stand has sparked a broader conversation about the rights of medical professionals and the need for greater respect and protection in their line of duty.
