New Delhi [India], August 13 (ANI): Targeting the Mamata Banerjee-led TMC government in West Bengal over the death of a female trainee doctor, Congress leader Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury criticized the state administration for its handling of the case.
He said, “It is condemnable. The state government should take action but remains in a dilemma. The law and order situation is worsening. The state government is not capable and seems intent on helping the accused.”
Congress MP Renuka Chowdhury also reacted to the incident, emphasizing that such events should not occur and that doctors must be ensured safety.
“This shouldn’t have happened. If a doctor is not safe while performing their duties inside a hospital, it will lead to protests. The expectations of common people should not be shattered. I stand with the doctors. Mamata Banerjee has stated that if the culprits are not arrested by Sunday, a CBI inquiry will be conducted. Doctors must be protected,” she said.
