Agartala, 13th August 2024:  In a show of solidarity with the victim from Radha Gobinda Kar Medical College in West Bengal, students and doctors from Agartala Government Medical College (AGMC) and GB Pant Hospital staged a protest on Tuesday, demanding a thorough investigation and the resignation of officials implicated in the case.

The demonstration follows the tragic alleged rape and murder of a 31-year-old second-year postgraduate student from RG Kar Medical College. The incident, reported on August 9, involved a female resident doctor from the college.

The protestors, including both doctors and students from AGMC and GB Pant Hospital, gathered at their respective institutions and conducted a rally on hospital grounds. They are calling for a transparent investigation and the implementation of national policies to address such grave crimes.

The agitating Doctors stated, “We stand united in our demand for justice. This crime is deeply shocking, and we urge the Centre to take decisive action. We call for a clear investigation and the resignation of those responsible.”

They said, “It is deeply troubling that a fellow resident doctor has suffered such a fate. Our march and protest are aimed at seeking justice for the victim.”

As part of the protest, doctors and students have suspended their work until 5 PM, with undergraduate students also boycotting classes. However, emergency and outpatient services will continue to operate during this period.
