Kolkata is witnessing a surge in protests following the rape and murder of a young doctor, with thousands taking to the streets in a march towards Nabanna, the state secretariat. The incident has sparked widespread outrage, leading to the 'Nabanna Abhiyan' protest march, demanding justice and highlighting concerns over women's safety. The ruling Trinamool Congress (TMC) and local authorities have ramped up security, deploying over 6,000 police officers and imposing restrictions to manage the protest and minimize disruption. Educational institutions in the area have moved to online classes or declared holidays in anticipation of the protests. The demonstrations have become a focal point for anti-government sentiment, with protesters seizing iconic locations and the police turning parts of Kolkata and Howrah into a fortress.
