Kolkata Doctor Case: RG Kar Hospital Under Security Lockdown; 151 CISF Officers and Security Personnel Deployed | ABP News

The RG Kar Medical College and Hospital in Kolkata has been placed under heightened security following a recent high-profile case. On August 21, 2024, the Central Industrial Security Force (CISF) deployed 151 officers and security personnel to ensure the safety of the hospital premises. This move comes after a trainee doctor was tragically found dead under distressing circumstances earlier in the month, sparking widespread protests and demands for justice. The CISF's mandate includes securing the institution’s hostels and other critical areas. The heightened security measures are also in response to recent unrest and demonstrations by students and various groups. The Central Home Ministry issued these directives based on a Supreme Court order, aiming to restore order and ensure the safety of all individuals involved.
