Federation of All India Medical Association (FAISA) president Rohan Krishna said, “Today we have gathered at Jantar Mantar because one of our sisters, who was a trainee doctor at RG Kar Medical College, has been raped and murdered. A CBI inquiry is underway in this case, but our demand is that the investigation should be done speedily and the culprit should be hanged.”

Dr Neelam said, “It is very important to implement the Central Protection Act for doctors. We try to save every patient coming to the hospital, but sometimes the patients come in a very critical condition. Many times, despite all efforts, we are unable to save the patients, after which vandalism and violence start in the hospital. Doctors are scared today, there is an atmosphere of fear among them. Therefore, our demand is that the Central Protection Act should be implemented, so that the safety of doctors can be ensured.”
