What is the RG Kar issue?

The state of West Bengal has seen some unprecedented gender violence over the last few days after a resident doctor was brutally raped and murdered after serving a 36-hour duty on August 9.

The semi-naked body of the 31-year-old woman was found on the morning of August 9th in the seminar hall of the RG Kar Medical College. Subsequently, a civic volunteer by the name of Sanjay has been booked behind bars based on circumstantial evidence.

The case was earlier under the jurisdiction of Kolkata Police. But even after 5 days when the case was not solved by the Kolkata Police, sporadic movements started to take place across the city. Everyone believed that the police were complacent and an active accomplice in the entire case. Subsequently, the CBI intervened in the matter on the orders of the Calcutta High Court.
