The Bengal government has written to the junior doctors protesting against the rape-murder of a colleague, asking them to participate in a discussion. The email came as the doctors marched to the health secretariat today and is camping out there, seeking immediate resignation of several senior officials and the city police chief. In the e-mail to the West Bengal Junior Doctors' Front, the government has asked the doctors to come for a discussion and end the month-long standoff.
But the doctors have refused, saying the e-mail has come from the health secretary, one of the people whose resignation they had been seeking.
"The email has come from the health secretary and this is insulting for us," the doctors said.
