On Gandhi Jayanti, hundreds of doctors along with people from all walks of life took to the Kolkata streets, accusing the West Bengal state administration of protecting perpetrators while punishing those appealing for justice. Dr. Subarna Goswami, a prominent member of the Joint Platform of Doctors, expressed his worries as he marched with junior doctors from College Square to Dharmatala. 

"Instead of providing justice, the state hides offenders and harasses protesters. "Our protest for justice is, therefore, completely justified," Dr. Goswami told the reporters. Senior doctors also joined the march, demonstrating the medical community's solidarity.

The current protest follows the most recent hearing before the CJI bench that have left the junior doctors dissatisfied, as well as a violent event at Sagar Dutta Hospital and Medical College last week, in which junior doctors, nurses, and healthcare workers were attacked after a patient died owing to a lack of ICU beds. Despite this, the state authorities apparently blamed the tragedy on the junior doctors. 

"The government is responsible for ensuring beds." This requires the allocation of funds and the implementation of healthcare policies. However, widespread unscrupulous practices misappropriate funds meant for patients, leading to unfair accountability of doctors, according to Dr Goswami.

Dr. Goswami also raised concerns about the government's tactic of using threats to suppress the protest. "Junior doctors and other groups involved in the movement are under attack. "The state government and the ruling Trinamool Congress are actively attacking protesters," he said. 

While expressing his steadfast support for the campaign, Dr. Goswami asked junior doctors to reconsider their strike as part of a long-term strategy. He warned against falling into the government's trap of pitting society against the protesting doctors. "The government uses public officials to incite other members of society against doctors. To counter this, we need to consider alternatives to the strike," he said. 

He acknowledged public support, saying, "Despite provocations, the general public has not abandoned us, and we must consider their concerns when strategising for the movement." 

Meanwhile, new forensic evidence has added to the mystery surrounding the violent killing of a female doctor from RG Kar Medical College. According to media reports, CBI sources stated that her body had at least 24 obvious exterior injuries and nine internal injuries, indicating a collective assault similar to a mob lynching. 

The CBI's inquiry calls into question the doctor's original assertions that she was only a victim of sexual assault, implying that her murder may have been the primary purpose. The injuries imply the involvement of numerous individuals. It's exceedingly implausible that a single person could have caused so widespread damage," according to media reports citing an investigating officer. 

CBI sources questioned the credibility of the initial postmortem and inquest reports, claiming they had overlooked some critical information. Notably, the report did not include injuries to the victim's back. The source raised suspicions of evidence tampering because the autopsy ignored several critical injuries.

Furthermore, contradictions at the crime scene have increased the case's complexity. Despite the horrific attack, authorities discovered the victim's phone, laptop, and broken spectacles neatly placed, which raised suspicions. "It's possible the body was moved to the seminar room after being murdered elsewhere," according to a witness. 

As the inquiry develops, forensic analysis of bloodstains discovered on a blue towel beside the victim's body may reveal new information. According to the article, not all of the blood found came from the victim's ear, complicating matters.

Junior doctors continue to protest, demanding swift justice in the RG Kar Medical College case and better protection for healthcare workers. However, the extensive inquiry procedure may impede the pace of justice. 

"Unlike the 2012 Nirbhaya case, this is not a straightforward case," stated one of the younger doctors. It appears that the murder was premeditated, and we are becoming increasingly certain that the dead witnessed something really bad happening in the hospital, which may have harmed someone extremely influential." 

"That is why we need to see implementation of full security measures on the ground before we can return to work," the junior doctor said.
