RG Kar Hospital's new Principal loses cool on protesters, says, ''Don't expect anything from me''

Kolkata: Following a violent mob attack at RG Kar Medical College and Hospital in Kolkata during a peaceful protest on Thursday, the protesting doctors mounted pressure on the newly appointed principal, Suhrita Pal, to take immediate action in response to the mob attack.

Protesting doctors have intensified their demands on newly appointed Principal Suhrita Pal to address the recent mob attack and meet the needs of medical students and staff.

Addressing the students, "If you can't trust me for one hour then send me home also. I need one hour to do some official work. You need to believe me, I won't go. You have to believe me. If you can't believe me then don't expect anything from me", news agency ANI reported.

Earlier in the day, the Indian Medical Association (IMA) issued a statement condemning the violence and stated that such vandalism with impunity points to anarchy.

According to an ANI report, the IMA lashed out at the Mamata Banerjee-led government in West Bengal, saying that the state government is directly responsible for this collapse of public order.

Kolkata Police clarified that the crime scene of the brutal rape and murder of a junior doctor at the RG Kar Medical College in the city had not been disturbed during the mob vandalism that broke out late on the night of August 14.

On Wednesday night, a mob entered the RG Kar hospital campus vandalised the site of the protest and attacked vehicles and public property, forcing security officials to disperse the mob.
