Doctors and civil society members organised a “mass convention” on Saturday to take a call on how to proceed with their agitation over the rape-murder of a fellow postgraduate medical student at Kolkata’s RG Kar Medical College and Hospital in Kolkata.
Several doctors were of the opinion that their demands were not discussed.
Doctors said they are unsatisfied with their meeting with Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee at the state secretariat, Nabanna.
Earlier this week, the doctors agitating over the rape-murder case had called off their hunger strike after meeting the CM.
They had also announced their decision to withdraw the proposed complete strike by all doctors, including the senior medical practitioners, which was scheduled for Tuesday.
The protesting doctors, however, maintained after their general body meeting that their “movement” over the issue will continue.
Against this backdrop, Union Home Minister Amit Shah is set to visit West Bengal on Tuesday, his first trip to the state since the Lok Sabha elections and the RG Kar Hospital incident.
