The Indian Medical Association announced a nationwide shutdown of hospital services, effective Saturday, in response to rising public outrage over the recent rape and murder of a trainee doctor.
Thousands protested in cities across India, demanding justice following the brutal attack on a 31-year-old medic, emphasizing the urgent need for safety measures for medical professionals.
Doctors highlighted the vulnerability of their profession, particularly for women, stressing that the authorities must ensure safety within hospitals to prevent such incidents from recurring.
Despite alleged police detentions related to the case, there are claims of mishandling by state officials, illustrating systemic failures in addressing violence against healthcare workers.
