The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Saturday targeted West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee of exacerbating the crisis in the state by transferring senior doctors amidst protests over the rape and murder of a 31-year-old trainee doctor. The transfers involve 42 doctors, including Dr. Sangeeta Paul and Dr. Supriya Das, who were previously stationed at RG Kar Medical College and Hospital. This institution was the site of the brutal incident on August 9. The BJP argues that these administrative changes are contributing to the turmoil and disruptions in the healthcare system, intensifying the ongoing public and political unrest related to the case.
