Outrage is intensifying in Varanasi following a disturbing incident in Kolkata, igniting widespread anger and protests across the city. The tension was palpable at the Divisional Hospital in Varanasi, where junior doctors from Banaras Hindu University (BHU) have taken a bold stand, shutting down OPD services in protest.

The escalating protests reflect a growing sense of insecurity and demand for immediate action to protect women and ensure justice. #KolkataDoctorCase #JusticeForDoctors #VaranasiProtests #VaranasiBHUProtest #DoctorSafety #HealthcareHeroes #MedicalJustice #SafeWorkplace #DoctorsUnite #ProtectDoctors #MedicalCommunity #HealthcareRights #SecureTomorrow #DoctorsDemandJustice #RespectDoctors #HealthcareReform
