More than 200 senior doctors have resigned in support of the junior doctors' protest in Bengal

 


More than 200 senior doctors have resigned in support of the junior doctors' protest in Bengal. Initially, 70 senior doctors from the Calcutta Medical College & Hospital and 40 from North Bengal Medical College & Hospital submitted their resignations. Additionally, over 100 senior doctors from four other state-run medical colleges and hospitals in West Bengal have also resigned to show solidarity with their protesting junior colleagues. 

This action comes as a response to the rape and murder of a junior doctor at R.G. There have been mass resignations of senior doctors from six hospitals, with over 200 doctors resigning from Kar Medical Colleges & Hospital in August. The latest update reports 50 senior doctors from the Calcutta National Medical College & Hospital (CNMCH) and 34 from N.R.S. Medical College & Hospital and 30 at the School of Medicine, Sagore Dutta Hospital, along with 19 at Jalpaiguri Medical College & Hospital, have submitted their resignations in the past few hours.

Earlier today, a total of 70 senior doctors from Calcutta Medical College & Hospital and 40 from North Bengal Medical College & Hospital also resigned en masse.

Reports indicate that senior doctors at other state-run medical colleges in the state are preparing for similar mass resignations in the coming days.

On Tuesday afternoon, approximately 50 senior doctors at R.G. Kar Hospital, along with faculty representatives, have submitted their resignations. "We have collectively submitted our resignations. If the state government desires, we will submit our individual resignations at a subsequent time. "If any untoward incident occurs to the junior doctors participating in the fast at Esplanade in Kolkata, who will assume accountability? Therefore, we urge the state government to proactively address the situation before it escalates," stated a departing senior doctor.
