The second round of discussions between the West Bengal government and the junior doctors protesting over the RG Kar Medical College incident concluded on Wednesday evening after nearly two-and-a-half hours, according to officials. The meeting, held at the state secretariat, Nabanna, aimed at finding a solution to the ongoing impasse.
While the discussions have concluded, the junior doctors are yet to emerge from the meeting venue, leaving many waiting for updates on the outcomes of the talks. The junior doctors have been agitating over issues of safety and security following the alleged rape and murder incident at RG Kar Medical College, which has sparked widespread protests across the medical community in Kolkata.
Details of the discussions are still awaited, and it remains unclear if any resolution has been reached. The meeting follows days of protest, during which junior doctors have demanded immediate action and guarantees for their safety within hospital premises.
The state government, represented by senior officials and members of a recently constituted task force, has expressed its willingness to address the concerns raised by the junior doctors. However, no official statement has been released regarding the outcomes of this second round of talks.
