Junior doctors in Kolkata initiated a hunger strike, demanding improved hospital security, 24-hour protection for healthcare workers, and an investigation into corruption.

The doctors have also highlighted the culture of fear and intimidation within state-run hospitals, alleging that the administration has not provided a safe working environment.
