Kolkata: Former Indian cricket captain Sourav Ganguly joined a candlelight protest in Kolkata on Wednesday, demanding justice for the doctor who was allegedly raped and murdered at a state-run hospital earlier this month.

Speaking to the media, Sana expressed her outrage, stating, "We want justice, this has to stop. Every day we hear about some rape case, and it's heartbreaking that this is still happening in 2024. This has to stop."
