RG Kar: Junior doctors’ hunger strike enters 9th day, others on 'symbolic fast'
KOLKATA: The hunger strike by junior doctors of West Bengal to press for their demands following the RG Kar hospital incident entered the ninth day on Sunday, when people are holding a "symblic fast" at various parts of the state to express solidarity with the agitators.
Three of the junior doctors who were observing ‘fast unto death’ in Kolkata and Siliguri city in the northern part of the state have so far been hospitalised after their condition deteriorated.
"Their conditions are worsening but the state administration remains unmoved,” a leader of the agitating Junior Doctors Forum said.
