'Humiliated in Public, Apologise in Public': Doctors Reject Goa Health Minister's apology - Video

Amid the ongoing controversy over the suspension of a senior doctor at Goa Medical College and Hospital (GMCH) by Goa Health Minister Vishwajit Rane, the concerned doctor has rejected an apology tendered by the Minister on the social media platform X.

Calling it a "studio apology", Dr. Rudresh Kuttikar, who was suspended by the Rane, demanded a public apology from the Minister at the Casualty Department of the hospital, where he had been berated by the Minister on Saturday.

Speaking to The Indian Express, Dr. Kuttikar said, "The minister should come to the Casualty Department and publicly apologise at the same place."

Medical Dialogues had earlier reported that Goa Health Minister Vishwajit Rane had lashed out at GMCH Chief Medical Officer (CMO) Dr. Rudresh Kuttikar for allegedly misbehaving with patients during his surprise visit to the premier facility on Saturday and ordered his suspension. The incident took place during the Minister's surprise visit to the hospital.
