Agitating junior doctors described the decision to remove the Kolkata Police Commissioner as their "moral victory".
They, however, said that they will continue with their 'cease work' and demonstration till promises made by the Bengal chief minister are fulfilled.
"We will also wait for Tuesday's hearing at the Supreme Court," the medics said after the meeting.
The meeting that was held after four unsuccessful bids to initiate a dialogue to resolve the deadlock also came a day before the Supreme Court hearing on the matter.
Limiting her remarks because 'the matter is sub-judice', Bengal CM Mamata Banerjee, said "Whatever they demanded, out of the four demands which are with us, we accepted three demands. We requested them to join work, so that commoners don’t suffer. There should not be more deaths of commoners. Nowadays, we are facing dengue, malaria and also, flood-like situation. We want justice for Abhaya and all the women who are affected throughout the country.”
West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on Monday night announced that Kolkata Police Commissioner Vineet Goyal, director of health services and director of medical education would be removed, giving in to the demands of the agitating junior doctors.
Noting that the talks with the protesters were fruitful, Banerjee said, nearly “99 per cent of their demands have been accepted” and they should resume their work.
The name of the new Kolkata police commissioner will be announced after 4 pm on Tuesday, she told reporters after the meeting held at her residence to resolve the crisis.
“Kolkata Police Commissioner Vineet Goyal and Deputy Commissioner of the North Division Abhishek Gupta will be transferred. The doctors had claimed that Goyal had earlier told them that he wanted to step down because they had lost faith in him. We have accommodated his request and transferred him to a position he had asked for,” Banerjee said.
She said there would be more changes in the police department.
“We informed them (medics) that it is not possible to accept the demand regarding the removal of the health secretary, as it would create a sudden vacuum in the health department,” she said.
Banerjee said the government has accepted three of the protesters’ five demands.
The chief minister urged the doctors to return to work as most of their demands have been accepted.
“No punitive action will be taken against the doctors… I would request them to rejoin work as common people are suffering,” she said.
The Bengal BJP unit plans to conduct the march near Hazra More near the CM Mamata Banerjee’s residence on September 25, Union Minister and BJP leader Sukanta Majumder said.
