Rape and Murder of Medical Student in Kolkata Sparks Protests
Aug 11, 2024, 03:20 PM
A tragic incident involving the rape and murder of a female medical student at Kolkata's Medical College has sparked significant outrage and protests among the student community. The West Bengal government has responded by transferring officials, following demands from protesting doctors for more decisive action. West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee has called for 'exemplary punishment' for those responsible, as tensions escalate and the college environment becomes increasingly volatile. This incident has raised concerns about women's safety in Kolkata, a city previously considered one of the safest metros for women according to NCRB 2022 data.
