The Nabbana Abhijan, student protests held in West Bengal have turned violent. The protests were organized by student and youth groups demanding the resignation of Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee over the alleged rape and murder of a doctor at RG Kar Medical College and Hospital. Students clashed with the police, who used batons and tear gas to disperse the crowds. The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has called for a 12-hour general strike on August 28 to protest against the police action.

The situation remains tense, with ongoing clashes between protesters and police. The West Bengal Governor has urged Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee to address the students’ concerns peacefully and constructively. The state government has yet to take significant steps towards resolving the issue. The protests are likely to continue until the demands of the students are addressed. It’s a complex situation with deep-rooted political and social implications.
