The Supreme Court criticized the West Bengal government for delaying the FIR in the rape and murder of a doctor at Kolkata’s RG Kar Medical College. The Court termed the incident horrific and questioned the sluggish response of authorities. A 10-member task force was formed to ensure safety for doctors nationwide. The Court also directed the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) to report by August 22 and addressed the vandalism at RG Kar Hospital, questioning the police’s failure to prevent a mob from entering. Protests by doctors have continued, demanding justice and a comprehensive probe.
