Controversial Statue Honors Victim of Kolkata Hospital Tragedy

The installation of a sculpture at RG Kar Hospital has sparked debate amid ongoing protests demanding justice for the murdered doctor.

The 'Cry of the Hour' statue was unveiled by junior doctors at Kolkata's RG Kar Hospital, depicting the victim's suffering.
The statue has drawn criticism for being 'disrespectful' and 'disturbing,' with some arguing it violates Supreme Court guidelines on victim anonymity.
Protests led by junior doctors continue, demanding enhanced security measures and justice for the victim, who was killed in August.
The CBI is investigating the case, with arrests including the former hospital principal, amid accusations of corruption and intimidation in medical colleges.
The controversy occurs as West Bengal prepares for Durga Puja, with protests overshadowing the festivities.
