India TV Chairman and Editor-in-Chief Rajat Sharma.
The Supreme Court today constituted a 10-member national task force to formulate rules for the safety of all health workers like doctors, nurses in all hospitals. It will also have many top doctors of the country and the cabinet and home secretaries. This task force will submit an interim report within 3 weeks and a final report within two months. The Supreme Court said that the country cannot wait for another gruesome incident like the heinous rape-murder that took place in the Kolkata hospital, and the safety of women doctors is a question of national interest. The court pulled up the West Bengal government, and asked the same questions that are in the minds of all doctors and the general public. Seeing the postmortem report of the innocent, promising, trainee doctor of Kolkata sent shivers down the spine. How can someone be so barbaric, so cruel, so stone-hearted? How can someone commit such atrocities on an innocent? The heart trembles at the thought of how much pain that girl must have suffered. She fought till her last breath.
Now some people are asking why people are so angry about this case? Why have doctors come out on the streets? Actually doctors and public feel that first there was an attempt to cover up this case, then an attempt was made to save the principal of the medical college and then an attempt was made to destroy the evidence. Each such act has raised suspicion. Is this a part of some big conspiracy? Is this an attempt to save some big man? Everyone has questions in their mind: Who was the one who told the parents of the doctor daughter that she committed suicide? Who was the one who did not let the parents of the victim of brutality see her face for 4 hours? Were the evidence destroyed in those 4 hours? At whose instigation was the attempt to save Dr. Sandeep Ghosh made? Who sent the mob that suddenly came to the hospital at midnight to destroy the remaining evidence? One should not look for right or wrong in the doubts that people have in their minds. Neither should anyone be stopped from protesting, nor from raising questions. Instead of clashing, instead of blaming each other, the Central Government and the State Government should assure the people that this should not happen to any other daughter again. Real concern is being shown about this. (Rajat Sharma)
