West Bengal Junior Doctors End Strike After Protests
News summary

Junior doctors in West Bengal have decided to end their sit-in protest and resume essential services from Saturday, though outpatient department (OPD) services will remain suspended. The protests were sparked by the rape and murder of a trainee doctor at RG Kar Medical College. The state government has issued a 10-point directive to address the doctors' demands, but the medical community has given a seven-day ultimatum for its implementation. The doctors plan to organize a rally on Friday and will continue their fight for justice through both the Supreme Court and ongoing street protests. Their decision to resume certain services reflects a partial withdrawal of their agitation while maintaining pressure for systemic changes. The Supreme Court is set to hear the case again on September 27.
