News summary

The tragic rape and murder of a trainee doctor at Kolkata’s RG Kar Medical College has ignited widespread outrage and protests across India, with prominent figures like Kalki Koechlin and Sara Ali Khan demanding justice and highlighting the systemic issue of sexual violence. The incident has led to a mass protest by junior doctors at the hospital, calling for accountability from the state government and police, with slogans emphasizing safety for healthcare professionals. West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee has accused opposition parties of politicizing the tragedy, claiming that protests are being exploited for political gain, while also supporting the Calcutta High Court's decision to transfer the case to the CBI for investigation. Amid the turmoil, a Trinamool Congress spokesperson was removed from his position after criticizing the party's handling of the situation and alleging gang activity within the college. The protests have also raised concerns over the safety of women in India, prompting many to call for more substantial actions rather than mere rhetoric. As the investigation unfolds, the emotional and political fallout from this incident continues to shape public discourse on women's rights and safety in the country.
