Protests against the rape and murder of a Kolkata doctor continued on Wednesday with ace cricketer Sourav Ganguly and his family leading a candlelight vigil. Meanwhile the IMA-led nationwide doctors agitation entered its tenth day as the CBI continued quizzing the former principal of RG Kar Medical College.
“We are protesting against rape. We need a safe society. Rape needs to stop,” Dona Ganguly told reporters.
The Odissi dancer and members of her academy stressed the need to create a “safe society” and sought justice for RG Kar trainee doctor.
“We want justice, this has to stop. Every day we hear about some rape case and we feel bad that this is happening even in 2024 and this has to stop,” added her daughter Sana Ganguly.
