RG Kar case: 10 more doctors expelled from medical college, were close confidants of Sandip Ghosh

As per the notification, a copy of which is available with IANS, the charges against them are far too many, including threatening others to fail examinations or get ousted from the hostel, forcing other juniors to join a particular political party, sexual harassment and misconduct, forceful collection of money, lodging of false FIRs against students and physical violence on targeted students among others.

All of them have been advised to vacate the medical college hostel within 72 hours from the time of issue of notification. Their registration papers will be scrutinized and then sent to the West Bengal Medical Council for appropriate action there.

Already, West Bengal Junior Doctors’ Front (WBJDF), the umbrella body spearheading the movement against the rape and murder case, announced on Saturday evening a unique protest where they will be giving medical services to the patients and observe fast-unto-death agitation in a parallel manner.

Accordingly, six junior students from different medical colleges and hospitals -- three female and three male, -- have volunteered to begin the process and all six of them have been on hunger strike since Saturday evening.
