STORYLINE:

Doctors and medical practitioners staged protests across India on Friday, including in the capital, New Delhi, demanding better security at their workplaces.

The demonstrations were triggered by the gruesome rape and murder of a 31-year-old doctor in Kolkata's RG Kar Medical College and Hospital last week.

The incident has heightened concerns about the safety of healthcare professionals, who frequently face threats and violence in the course of their duties.

Protesters urged the government to implement stronger measures to protect medical staff and ensure a safe working environment.

The widespread protests reflect growing fear and anger among doctors, who say such attacks are becoming alarmingly common. The demands include enhanced security and strict legal action against perpetrators.
