Goa CM condemns West Bengal government for `mishandling' rape and murder of doctor
PANAJI: Goa Chief Minister Pramod Sawant on Saturday berated the Mamata Banerjee-led government in West Bengal for the "shameful mishandling" of the brutal rape and murder of a trainee doctor at Kolkata's R G Kar Hospital.
"A call to ensure a safe and respectful environment for our Doctors & Women! I strongly condemn the shameful mishandling of the horrific incident at RG Kar Hospital in Kolkata by their State Government," said Sawant, himself an Ayurveda doctor by training, in a post on X.
Members of the Indian Medical Association's Goa unit, meanwhile, joined the nationwide strike in protest against the Kolkata incident from 6 in the morning.
