Mamata announces 2 lakh each for families of 29 people who died amid doctors' protest

West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee has on Friday announced a compensation of Rs 2 lakh to the families of the 29 people who have died in the state so far amid the Kolkata doctors' protest.

In a post on social media platform X, Banerjee wrote, "It is sad and unfortunate that we have lost 29 precious lives  due to disruption in health services because of long drawn cease work by junior doctors. In order to extend a helping hand to the bereaved families, State Government announces a token financial relief of Rs. 2 lakh to family members of each deceased person."

The junior doctors have been on 'cease work' since August 9 when the body of an on-duty postgraduate trainee was found in state-run RG Kar Medical College and Hospital. She was allegedly raped and murdered.
