The president of the Indian Medical Association (IMA) has urged doctors to return to patient care, leaving justice to the Supreme Court of India in connection with the protests over the rape and murder incident of the trainee doctor at RG Kar College and Hospital in Kolkata.
“The sacrifice of the young postgraduate resident of RG Kar has moved the conscience of the nation. The anger and frustration of the entire nation are equally on the fact that she happened to be a budding doctor as well as that she was the only girl child of lower-middle-class parents. The entire nation has adopted her as their daughter,” the IMA’s letter read. The IMA president emphasised the apex court’s response in the matter and said that the entire medical fraternity should abide by the word given by the court.
