"We will continue with our 'cease work' and demonstration here at the 'Swasthya Bhavan' (health department headquarters) till the promises made by the CM materialise.

The junior doctors said they would hold a meeting after the hearing on Tuesday, and take a call on their 'cease work' and demonstration.
The medics, who broke into celebrations following Banerjee's announcement, were addressing the media at the 'Swasthya Bhavan' after returning from her Kalighat residence, where a meeting was held between the chief minister and a delegation of the doctors.
