Kolkata: The RG Kar Medical College plunged into crisis after mass resignation of senior doctors in support of the junior doctors who are on an indefinite hunger strike. Fifty senior doctors from RG Kar Medical College and Hospital have resigned in support of junior doctors protesting the alleged rape and murder of a trainee doctor. Many doctors from the hospital shared social media posts and videos of senior colleagues resigning. Earlier in the day, 15 senior doctors also joined their junior counterparts in a symbolic hunger strike, further demonstrating the growing unrest within the hospital. As a result, the mass resignation has drawn widespread attention to the ongoing issue.

The junior doctors have been on a hunger strike since Saturday, seeking justice for their colleague. They have been trying to call attention to what they describe as a ‘corruption-threat syndicate’ on the campus. Their demands go beyond addressing the tragic death, aiming to create a safer and more efficient environment at the hospital. The doctors are also advocating for improved campus democracy and a more patient-friendly healthcare system.
