The brutal rape and murder of a 31-year-old medico in Kolkata’s RG Kar Medical College and Hospital on August 9 have triggered statewide protests seeking justice for the victim. Women in Kolkata and other parts of West Bengal are set to congregate at various locations on Wednesday at 11.55 pm under the ‘Women, Reclaim the Night: The Night is Ours’ campaign. The protest is described as “For women’s independence on the midnight of independence”. Posters on the protest details are being shared widely on social media, and a large number of people including men are expected to join in tonight.Trinamool Congress leader and Rajya Sabha MP Sukhendu Sekhar Ray in a post on X last night said that he will join the ‘midnight protest’ too.”Tomorrow I am going to join the protesters particularly because I have a daughter and little granddaughter like millions of Bengali families. We must rise to the occasion. Enough of cruelty against women. Let’s resist together. Come what may,” he shared.
