Reacting to the ‘mass resignation’, TMC leader Kunal Ghosh said, “The government is very responsible and tolerant. The doctors are engaging in a politics of blackmail and harassing patients. The government will do what it has to do.”
Around 50 senior doctors and faculty members of RG Kar Medical College and Hospital in Kolkata resigned on Tuesday in solidarity with their junior colleagues, who are on a hunger strike protesting the rape and murder of a trainee doctor on the institution’s premises in August this year, the Federation of All India Medical Association (FAIMA) said.
Reacting to the ‘mass resignation’, TMC leader Kunal Ghosh said, “The government is very responsible and tolerant. The doctors are engaging in a politics of blackmail and harassing patients. The government will do what it has to do.”
Ghosh added, “The mass petition that the doctors are signing is illegal. They should submit individual resignations; why should they resign from their duty? They should resign from their job.”
