Junior doctors in West Bengal have gone on indefinite hunger strike, demanding justice from the Mamata Banerjee-led state administration. They stated that their protest would continue until their demands were met on humanitarian grounds, reported ANI.

Dr Sayantani, addressing on behalf of the West Bengal Junior Doctors Front, stated, "Till the time our demands of justice on humanitarian grounds is not fulfilled, we will sit here. Before her rape and murder, Abhaya went through multiple threats. Anyone could have been 'Abhaya'. It is our responsibility that there is no more Abhaya. This is not a fight against the public, this fight is by and for the public."
