The West Bengal Junior Doctors’ Front (WBJDF) has called for a march to the CBI office in Salt Lake on Wednesday to demand "a proper charge-sheet” and the “swift arrest” of all culprits in the RG Kar rape and murder.
The march is intended to remind the CBI that the crime took place "almost three months ago but the agency has still not identified all those involved”.
The rally will start at 4pm from the West Bengal Medical Council, near the Salt Lake Stadium, and end at the CGO Complex, which houses the CBI office.
Those taking part in the vigil will carry flaming torches, a junior doctor said.
The junior doctors have also given a call for mass conventions and rallies across Bengal on November 9 to demand justice for the young doctor who was raped and murdered on August 9 and to press for other demands.
A platform called Abhaya Mancha was formed on Tuesday. It will be an umbrella organisation of 80 bodies, including those of senior doctors.
This organisation has called for lighting of lamps — “Paray Paray Droher Alo Jalo (lights for protest in every neighbourhood)” — across Bengal on November 4.
On November 9, they will hold a mass convention on Rani Rashmoni Avenue in Esplanade to mark the completion of three months of the RG Kar tragedy.
“Our main focus is to secure justice for the RG Kar victim.... We will ensure threat culture in any field is met with strong resistance,” said Tamonas Chaudhuri, a founding member of Abhaya Mancha.
Debashis Halder, a junior doctor, said the WBJDF will continue its movement till the time “all the perpetrators of the crime are punished and a safe working environment is established for all healthcare professionals".
“They need to swiftly arrest all those involved in the crime and file a proper chargesheet,” he said.
