Kolkata doctor rape-murder case: Agitating doctors write to Mamata Banerjee, seeking appointment to resolve RG Kar impasse

The Hindu  

The impasse between protesting resident doctors and the West Bengal government over the resumption of duty continued for the second day on Wednesday, with the medicos setting fresh conditions for holding talks with the State government. Chief Secretary Manoj Pant said the government was disheartened with the response of junior doctors setting conditions for talks, which did not result in discussion with an open mind. Our demands are clear.” Chief Secretary’s email The conditions were set up in response to an email by the Chief Secretary on Wednesday afternoon where Mr. Pant urged them to resume duty immediately in adherence to the Supreme Court directive asking the doctors to resume duty by 5 p.m. on September 10. “But if they do not start work, we will not be able to restrain the State from taking action, because that is entirely within its jurisdiction.” Sit-in demonstration Amid the ongoing slugfest between the State government and doctors, thousands of junior doctors continued a sit-in demonstration outside Swasthya Bhavan, the headquarters of the Health Department, from Tuesday. If the Health department had not enabled this type of system, then the conditions of the medical colleges would not have deteriorated so much.” Meanwhile, the sit-in agitation by junior doctors outside the Health department’s headquarters received an outpouring of public support as senior doctors, common people and anonymous well-wishers sent water, biscuits, fruits, bread, eggs, and other essential supplies via e-commerce delivery services.
