The medics alleged that the attack at Sagore Dutta Hospital have shown the state government has “totally failed” in keeping their promises to provide them security.
“We are giving the state some time and want to hear their submission regarding our security in the Supreme Court on Monday. Then, from 5 PM we will start total cease work at all hospitals across Bengal,” one of the junior doctors said.
