He emphasized the urgent need for justice and drew attention to the escalating threats faced by healthcare professionals. For Faruk, doctors are invaluable \u201cangels\u201d of society, making the attack particularly distressing.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt\">In the wake of this tragic incident and amid a wave of national protests, the West Bengal Health and Family Welfare Department has retracted the transfer orders of 42 doctors. Concurrently, Kolkata police have enforced prohibitory orders under Section 163 of BNSS in the vicinity of RG Kar Medical College and Hospital. These measures, in effect for seven days starting Sunday, August 18, 2024, aim to curb unlawful assemblies and maintain public order.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt\">Additionally, ongoing investigations take a critical turn as Dr. Sandip Ghosh, the former principal of RG Kar Medical College and Hospital, underwent rigorous questioning by the CBI for the second consecutive day. Authorities are probing his actions and responses on the night of the postgraduate trainee\u2019s death, including a call he received from her. This thorough investigation highlights the gravity with which authorities are treating the case, underscoring their commitment to achieving justice.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt\">Overall, Faruk\u2019s silent protest epitomizes the collective grief and demand for action shared by many, illustrating the broader societal impact of violence against healthcare workers.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Umar Faruk, a local tea seller in Karimganj city, led a poignant silent protest with tape over his mouth and a placard in hand at a bustling petrol pump.
