Kolkata – The strike of junior doctors in connection with the rape and murder of a trainee doctor at Radha Gobind Kar Medical College and Hospital on 9^thAugust continues for the 32^nd day. The health department had called the doctors for a meeting on 10^thSeptember. Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee also came for this meeting. She waited an hour and a half for the delegation of the doctors; but as they did not come, Mamata Banerjee left. Explaining the reason for refusing to come to the meeting, the doctors said, “The one from whom we (Principal Secretary of Health Department) are seeking resignation is the one who is calling us for the meeting. This is an insult to our movement”.

Doctors’ agitation continues even after the directive of the Supreme Court !

Despite the Supreme Court’s directive to return to work on 10^thSeptember, the doctors continued their agitation. They protested by marching to Arogya Bhavan. This time all the doctors walked through the night. This time the parents of the victim also participated. The mother of the victim said that thousands of my children are on the streets. So I couldn’t stay at home.

Ministers warned not to speak in the case of murder

According to sources, no one except Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee has been instructed in the state cabinet meeting not to comment on the rape and murder case in Kolkata.

Editorial Perspective

Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee’s callous handling of the rape of a female doctor has sparked public outrage. The Union Government should end the unjust rule of Mamata Banerjee and implement the President’s Rule in the state.
