Kolkata (West-Bengal) [India] October 14 : As the junior doctor's protest continues, demanding justice in the RG Kar rape-murder case, Trinamool Congress leader Kunal Ghosh on Monday said that junior doctor don't want the case to be resolved.
TMC leader Kunal Gosh accused junior doctors of "trying their best to cause anarchy and disorder."
"They don't want the case to be resolved, they are trying their best to cause anarchy and disorder. Some of them are left and ultra-left faces. The first demand was they wanted CBI instead of Kolkata Police but within 24 hours the accused was arrested by Kolkata Police. Then High Court handed over the case to CBI and they welcomed it," Ghosh said.
Ghosh said that the protesting doctors don't have any faith in Kolkata Police, health administration, Supreme Court and CBI.
Accusing them of indulging in politics, Ghosh said, "They are trying to drag the issue only to disturb the state govt and TMC. We also want justice...they are continuously changing their demands and focus and trying to drag the issue guided by left and ultra-left forces"
