Mamata Banerjee to meet junior doctors at Nabanna on Monday

Kolkata, Jun 16 (UNI): West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee will meet a delegation of junior doctors at 3pm on Monday at the state secretariat, Nabanna.

Mamata on Sunday accepted the junior doctors' demand of an open meeting.

Altogether 28 representatives from 14 medical colleges will meet the CM to end the impasse.

The meeting will also be attended by the chief secretary, additional and principal secretary, health, and director, medical education.

However, confirmation from striking junior doctors' side is still awaited.

Earlier today, after a long stand-off, the striking junior doctors put the ball in Mamata's court, expressing their readiness to meet Ms Banerjee at any venue she decides.

After the five-hour-long general body meeting this morning, the junior doctors said they want to meet the chief minister under camera supervision, thereby ruling out any closed-door meeting.

They said in a statement: “We have agreed to meet Ms Banerjee anywhere, but Nabanna or Raj Bhawan, under camera supervision."
