Kolkata: Chief Minister Suvendu Adhikari has once again accused the previous Trinamool Congress government of orchestrating vandalism at the RG Kar hospital during a protest on August 14, 2024. Adhikari claims that the incident, which targeted the emergency building, was carried out at the behest of then Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee to undermine the ongoing investigation.
He alleges that local MLA Atin Ghosh was involved in the attack, and that the police deliberately allowed it to happen. Adhikari stated, "The entire state was busy protesting at different places, demanding justice for the junior medic, when the police made way for them and the local MLA at the behest of the former Chief Minister.
It was a conspiracy." The West Bengal Chief Minister also expressed his commitment to bringing justice to the parents of the deceased junior medic, echoing Prime Minister Narendra Modi's call for "we will do it." He assured that his government will not spare anyone involved in the mishandling of the investigation, and mentioned that three IPS officers have already been suspended for their role in the case.
