    Demand On Safety Met, Doctors' Body Calls Off Strike Over Kolkata Rape-Murder

    Hours after stating that the strike which began after the rape and murder of a trainee doctor in Kolkata would continue, a key doctors’ body announced on Tuesday night that the agitation has been called off. 

    The Federation of Resident Doctors’ Association (FORDA) said the decision was taken after a meeting with Health Minister JP Nadda and that their demands had been met, including one seeking an assurance that the Central Healthcare Protection Act would be passed to curb attacks on medical personnel.

    In a statement, FORDA said, “as requested”, it will be part of a committee on the Central Healthcare Protection Act, work on which will start within 15 days. 

    Around 11 pm, soon after the FORDA statement, the health ministry posted on X that Mr Nadda has welcomed the organisation’s decision and all their concerns regarding the safety of healthcare workers would be addressed.  

    “Union Health Minister, Shri @JPNadda met with the Federation of Resident Doctors Association (@FordaIndia) delegation today.  He welcomed their decision to call off the strike in the public interest and assured them that the Ministry of Health & Family Welfare will address all their concerns to ensure a safer and better work environment.

    The protests had begun on Monday, three days after the body of a 31-year-old post-graduate trainee, who was working at Kolkata’s renowned state government-run RG Kar Medical College and Hospital, was found inside a seminar hall in the institution. She was raped and murdered and Sanjoy Roy, a civic volunteer working with the Kolkata Police, has been arrested for the crime.

    Apart from sexual assault, her post-mortem report revealed that several injuries were inflicted on her before she was smothered to death.

    The doctors had demanded that the probe into the rape and murder be handed over to the CBI, which was met on Tuesday through a Calcutta High Court order. An assurance on the Act remained a hurdle, however, and FORDA posted around 6.30 pm that the strike would continue.

    “No assurance on Central Healthcare Protection act- No call off! OUR DEMANDS still stand incomplete,” the post read.
