Demonstrators fill the streets, calling for justice and accountability.

Kolkata, August 15 (Ozi news desk): In a powerful demonstration of solidarity and outrage, thousands of women from diverse backgrounds took to the streets of West Bengal at midnight on Wednesday, voicing their anger over the tragic rape and murder of a doctor who was on duty at a Kolkata hospital the previous week. This movement, inspired by the ‘Reclaim the Night’ initiative, gained significant traction through social media platforms, prompting the protests to commence precisely at 11:55 PM, coinciding with the celebrations of Independence Day. The demonstrations unfolded in various locations, encompassing both small towns and major urban centers, with notable gatherings at several iconic sites in Kolkata. The situation escalated dramatically at RG Kar Medical College and Hospital, where a group of individuals, not affiliated with the protests, forcefully breached the hospital grounds, adding a layer of tension to an already charged atmosphere.
