Doctors, Activists Come Out Against Sick Culture

The incident has ignited widespread outrage and a call for stronger protections for women, particularly in the healthcare sector.

The protest drew more than 150 participants, including doctors from various institutions, activists, and residents of Dadar. Among those present were members of the Mahim Dharavi Medical Practitioners Association, who stood in solidarity with their colleagues in West Bengal. Protestors carried placards with messages advocating for stricter punishments for rape and an end to the pervasive culture of victim-blaming and shaming in India.
