The Supreme Court will hear the case related to the brutal rape and murder of the female doctor in Kolkata's RG Kar Medical College and Hospital on Monday.

The body of the doctor was recovered from the hospital on August 9, triggering massive protests across West Bengal with doctors and civilians taking out rallies and demonstrating regularly in Kolkata to demand justice for the victim.

A bench comprising Chief Justice DY Chandrachud and Justices JB Pardiwala and Manoj Misra is expected to oversee the proceedings in the apex court on Monday.

The hearing will take place a day after the third 'Reclaim the Night' campaign was held in Kolkata with people demanding justice for the doctor and also questioning the role of the government and police in the incident.

Apart from the campaign, thousands of people from different walks of life, including doctors, students, rickshaw pullers and artisans, shouted slogans demanding justice for the RG Kar rape and murder victim with Kolkata witnessing multiple rallies across various points in the city on Sunday.

According to media reports, over 4000 former students of various schools in Kolkata walked in south Kolkata's Rashbehari Avenue over the incident which has triggered massive demonstrations in the state and across the nation for the past month.
