The Supreme Court is hearing a case regarding the same while the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) has taken over the investigation, questioning several individuals including the former principal of RG Kar, Dr Sandip Ghosh.
Cries of "We want justice" echoed as the girls of Bethuadahari JCM High School, in Khidirpur protested. Though rains lashed the area continuously, they did not seem to be deterred by it.

After the second appeal of the Chief Justice of India (CJI) DY Chandrachud to protesting doctors, asking them to go back to work, most medical associations got back to their duties. However, the doctors made it clear that this is not the end to their appeal for safety for healthcare professionals. Hence, their fight will continue, they said.
