Doctor rape-murder case highlights | 'Will write a sealed letter to CM over what victim's kin told me', says Governor Bose
Protests continue to rock across the country for the horrific crime of rape and murder of a doctor in Kolkata's R G Kar Medical college and hospital. State Governor CV Ananda Bose paid a visit to the residence of the victim while the Union home ministry earlier today wrote to Bengal chief secretary seeking deployment of the CISF at the Kolkata hospital. The Union Health Ministry issued an office memorandum on the National Task Force, formed by the Supreme Court for doctors' safety.' safetyThe Supreme Court yesterday ordered the removal of the name, photos and videos of the victim from social media platforms, along with making some firm observations on how the state government failed to ensure security of the hospital when it was vandalised in the early hours of August 15. That's all for today, we will be back tomorrow with more updates as we closely track the Kolkata rape murder case. Thank you and goodnight!
