“If You Return To Work, I Promise… “: CM Mamata Banerjee To Protesting Doctors

Mamata Banerjee

Banerjee further said that the administrative and police officials whose resignations the junior doctors have demanded are not her “friends” — she needs “time to probe” them. Banerjee said this would be her last attempt to appeal to junior doctors.

West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on Saturday reached at the dharna site of protesting junior doctors. The TMC chief said that if the protestors could trust her, she would be ready to consider their demands, but she needs time.

“I have personally come here to you. My post is not a big thing. People’s posts are big. I could not sleep last night. I felt the pain. You were sitting on Dharna while it was raining last night… I, too, spent sleepless nights because I am your guardian,” said CM Banerjee, holding a microphone.

“If you return to work, I promise I will study your demands and talk to the officers. I will look into your demands with sensitivity. If you trust me, give me some time. I will take action against anyone guilty,” she said.

Banerjee further said that the administrative and police officials whose resignations the junior doctors have demanded are not her “friends” — she needs “time to probe” them. Banerjee said this would be her last attempt to appeal to junior doctors.

On Thursday, scheduled talks between the state government and junior doctors failed over the issue of livestreaming at Nabanna. While  CM Banerjee waited inside Nabanna (the West Bengal government’s temporary secretariat), junior doctors stayed outside after the state government denied their demand for live streaming of the meeting.

The victim has said in her complaint that Vansh Chaudhary, a resident of Sahadatganj in Ayodhya district, had promised to take her to places in the district “for recreation”.

Eight persons have been arrested in Ayodhya in connection to allegations of gang rape of a cleaning staff at the Ram Janmabhoomi temple.

In her complaint, the victim, a third-year BA student, said that Vansh Chaudhary, a resident of Sahadatganj in Ayodhya district, had promised to take her to places in the district “for recreation”.

According to a report by the Telegraph, the victim while narrating her ordeal said: “He took me to a guest house on August 16 and confined me there. He, along with his two other friends, gang-raped me and then invited three more friends to traumatise me,” she stated.

The victim further said: “From the guest house, they took me to a barrage in Banvirpur and again assaulted me. They released me on August 18,” she said, identifying two other accused — Vinay Kumar and Mohammad Sharqi.

“As I feared for my family members and my life because they had threatened to kill all of us, I didn’t go to the police. But Vansh again abducted me on August 25 when I was going to the temple. There were Udit Kumar, Satram Chaudhary and two unidentified persons with him. They tried to assault me in the car but rammed into a divider and I got time to run away from their clutches,” according to the report.

“We registered the case on September 2 after an inquiry and eventually arrested all eight accused. They were sent to jail by the court,” Amrendra Singh, the person in charge of Cantt police station in Ayodhya. Singh said the girl trusted Vansh because she had known him for four years.
