Amid the ongoing protests over the RG Kar rape and murder case, there have been reports of an attack at Sagar Dutt Medical College and Hospital in Kamarhati during a council meeting on Thursday.
The attack occurred during a meeting of the college council, where the college authorities were having a meeting with the protesting students on the hospital premises.
According to initial reports, a group of students, along with outsiders, vandalised the college premises and broke the glass doors during the council meeting.
The Principal of the Sagar Dutt Medical College and Hospital alleged that some students started a ruckus during the meeting. The glass door was also damaged, he said.
The Bengal Police, meanwhile, reached the spot after which the matter was brought under control, a report in ABP Ananda said.
The vandalism reportedly unfolded over the issue of non-availability of hostels and the allotment of hostels.
HC Seeks CBI Report On Nasty Social Media Posts On RG Kar
The Calcutta High Court on Thursday directed the CBI to file a report by September 18 on detestable posts being made on social media regarding the rape-murder victim of RG Kar Medical College and Hospital.
The court noted that nasty comments, which are far from being acceptable to any member of the society, have been made with the photograph of the victim as found in the copies of the offending posts provided by the petitioner. The body of the on-duty trainee doctor was found in the seminar room of the state-run hospital on August 9, triggering nationwide outrage.
The CBI is investigating the case from the second week of August on an order of the high court. The petitioner prayed in the PIL that the CBI be directed to investigate the cyber offences in connection with the unfortunate and brutal incident.
