The incident follows the recent rape and murder of a doctor in Kolkata, raising concerns about the safety of women in state-run hospitals. Meanwhile, in a separate case, a patient in Birbhum district was arrested for molesting an on-duty nurse, further highlighting the issue of sexual violence against healthcare workers in the region. Authorities are investigating both incidents and have promised stringent actions. These events have intensified statewide protests and criticism of Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee's handling of safety measures for women.
