Protests have occurred in several hospitals across the country, including in the capital.
The discovery of the 31-year-old’s brutalised body last week at a state-run hospital has sparked widespread outrage, with Prime Minister Narendra Modi demanding swift punishment for those who commit “monstrous deeds” against women.
The protesters in Kolkata, who marched under the slogan “reclaim the night”, called for a wider tackling of violence against women and held up handwritten signs demanding action.“The atrocities against women do not stop,” midnight marcher Monalisa Guha told Kolkata’s The Telegraph newspaper. Doctors in government hospitals across several states on Aug 12 halted elective services “indefinitely”, demanding speedy justice and better workplace security.
Mr Modi, speaking in New Delhi on the morning of Aug 15 at independence day celebrations, did not specifically reference the Kolkata murder but expressed his “pain” at violence against women.
