The West Bengal Junior Doctors’ Front (WBJDF) penned a four-page letter to President Murmu, which was also copied to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Vice-President Jagdeep Dhankhar, and Health Minister JP Nadda.
The letter detailed a series of recent attacks on the hospital campus, including vandalism and ransacking by a mob. The violence, which followed the tragic incident on August 9, has led to an extended strike by junior doctors in the Staterun Government hospitals.
A post-graduate trainee was raped and murdered in the State-run RG Kar Medical College and Hospital on August 9. Junior doctors have been on “cease work” since then.
“We humbly place the issues before your esteemed Excellency, as the Head of State, so that our unfortunate colleague who has been the victim of the most despicable crime shall receive justice, and so that we, the healthcare professionals under the West Bengal Health department, may be able to discharge our duties to the public without fear and apprehension.
