01:20I am from Kolkata myself. My hometown is Kolkata and I have done my MBBS from Siliguri.
01:28So the situation as of now, like I have been speaking to my friends regarding the mob attack.
01:34The mobs have been attacking hostels and the main intention was to destroy the evidence
01:41because they know the gravity of the situation and they know that we are united all across the country
01:48and they are trying their full fledge to stop that, to scare our fellow colleagues in Bengal.
01:55Our friends and colleagues are saying that they are spending sleepless nights, scared
02:00because even they don't know what's going to happen next.
02:03So this is a fight which we all are into. It will not end in one day or two days or three days.
02:11We will be continuing this strike. If needed, we will be escalating even more
02:16because Gandhi Medical College stands with RJKAR, Hyderabad stands with Bengal
02:22and we will continue this till justice is served.
02:52No justice! No justice!
02:57We all know what's going on in RJKAR Medical College.
03:01We all know that justice is something which cannot be satisfied if it is not met properly.
03:07You know that photos are being erupted from the videos in which all the evidence is being destroyed.
03:12As doctors, we have only one demand. Please provide justice.
03:15This is our biggest demand and the second one is to take workplace safety very seriously.
03:20Because if doctors are not safe in their workplaces, they cannot provide the care and treatment that they want.
03:25On one hand, the government is saying, raise your daughter, save your daughter.
03:28Is it responsible that doctors are not safe, girls are not safe?
03:31I can ask this question to all of you.
03:33No, the government is saying it.
03:35On one hand, the government is giving big messages like raise your daughter, save your daughter.
03:39On the other hand, the girls are not safe, they are being raped.
03:42There is no result yet.
03:44What do you think is responsible?
03:46I think everyone is responsible for this.
03:48If you look at it, everyone is responsible for this.
03:51Just by pinpointing the administration or the government, no change will come.
03:54Everyone will have to stand united.
03:56What should be done? What should the government do?
03:58Increase security.
04:00For example, if there is an entry-exit point of a hospital, there should always be security guards.
04:05Second thing, I think CCTV surveillance is very important.
04:08It is not only necessary to have cameras, but it should also be functional or not.
04:13There should be complaint boxes so that doctors can file their complaints.
04:18The biggest fear for a girl is that the society will judge her.
04:21If she cannot come forward and raise her voice, then what is the use of justice?
04:24So our main demand is that we should be provided with the voice through which we can put our requirements in front of them.
04:32No unity, no safety.
04:39We want justice!
05:03The Indian army or the people who work day and night should come and support our civil society.
05:13They should be angry that there is a heinous crime being committed against the people of the country.
05:25This should be punished immediately.
05:29We will not back up health institutions until there is protection.
05:35The mother is not feeling safe.
05:38Why should someone keep their child in this country?
05:41Why should someone bring the Central Protection Act?
05:46At least, a protection is being ensured for doctors.
05:51At the same time, there should be security cameras so that doctors can feel safe.
06:04One, two, three, four! Stop this injustice!
06:10People often ask us why we are protesting.
06:25I would like to share my personal opinion with you.
06:28This whole process started when I was born.
06:32When I was born or when the child was born.
06:34At that point, the parents saw a dream that they would make their daughter a doctor.
06:38When the daughter was 14-15 years old, she saw a dream that she would become a doctor.
06:43After that, she worked hard day and night.
06:46She graduated from UG NEET.
06:48After graduating from UG NEET, she worked hard for 5.5 years and became a doctor.
06:52After becoming a doctor, she pursued MD.
06:55She gave her PG NEET exam.
06:57She worked hard day and night.
06:59After spending 10 years of her life in the medical field,
07:02she took a 36-hour shift and went to her room to rest.
07:09This is the same scenario with me.
07:13We also take 36-hour shifts.
07:15My residents also take 36-hour shifts.
07:17Everyone asks for rest.
07:19You also ask for rest.
07:20Every person needs rest.
07:21It was her fault that she gave 10 years of her life to the medical field.
07:25After 36 hours of duty, she went to her seminar room.
07:28She was raped and murdered there.
07:31She was raped and murdered.
07:33That is not acceptable.
07:35Criminal justice and criminal actions are being suppressed.
07:40Evidences are being vandalized so that it is not established that it was gang rape.
07:44Allegedly, it was gang rape and murder.
07:49The government was telling her parents that it was a suicide.
07:53But actually, it was nothing like that.
07:55Why is this being done?
07:57Our main question is that our fight is not with any government.
08:00It is not with any administrator.
08:02It is not with any specific government.
08:30We want justice.
08:32We want justice.
08:42We want justice.
08:44We want justice.
08:46We want justice.
08:48We want justice.
08:50We want justice.
08:52We want justice.
08:54We want justice.
08:56Our voice.
08:58Our pen.
09:00Our voice.
09:02Our pen.
09:04Our voice.
09:06Our pen.
09:08Our voice.
09:10We want justice.
09:12We want justice.
09:14We want justice.
09:16Our fight is only with the law.
09:18The law does not provide us with enough protection.
09:21As a doctor, as a sister, as any woman who is a victim of rape,
09:28this law provides us with this guarantee.
09:30This is the same law that came into force in the 1860s when IPC came into force.
09:34The same law that the Britishers used to enforce us is still in force.
09:39The same law that the Britishers are enforcing on us,
09:42our elected representatives are enforcing on us.
09:44This law is being misused.
09:46You can see a direct example of this.
09:48You can see the peaceful protests that took place in Kolkata the day before yesterday.
09:53All of them, including Dr. Superman,
09:55a mob of 2,000 people, started breaking things, setting fires,
09:58and started tampering with evidence.
10:00What else can I tell you?
10:02You can see how the law is being used against us.
10:04The law is not able to do anything.
10:06The police come and give statements.
10:08What has happened?
10:10Look, the law belongs to the experts, the lawmakers.
10:15We demand that there should be a law that acts as a deterrent.
10:20No one should have the courage.
10:22Why is the number of rapes in Saudi Arabia so low?
10:25Why is it so low in those countries?
10:27They are straight forward.
10:29They are publicly decapitated.
10:31If anyone has the courage to rape, even if they think about it.
10:33We have such a law that we cannot take the name of the rapist,
10:36sorry, we can take the name of the rapist,
10:38but we cannot take the name of the person who was raped.
10:40This is such a law.
10:42I don't know what is happening here.
10:45Our OPDs will be closed today.
10:47Our emergency services are only running.
10:49Let's see how long this will continue.
10:51But until our demands are met, we will sit here.
11:14No safety, no duty.
11:19We want justice.
11:32Safety is our right.
11:38We want justice.
11:49If you touch our lives,
11:57protect them.
12:05If you touch our lives,
12:12protect them.
12:17Strike on, strike on.
12:22We want justice.
12:25We want justice.
12:33Strike on, strike on.
12:36Doctor, strike on.
12:39We want justice.
12:54Safety is our right.
13:03We want justice.
13:15We want justice.
13:32Stop this torture.
13:45We want justice.
13:59We want justice.
14:11We want justice.
14:13Hang the rapist.
14:15We want justice.
14:16Hang the rapist.
14:18We want justice.
14:20Hang the rapist.
14:24You know, see a poor girl,
14:26a poor girl who was on duty
14:28to save the human lives
14:30was tragically raped by multiple persons.
14:34We don't even know the number.
14:35And murdered.
14:36And why this happened?
14:38Probably she was not in a safe place.
14:41That's why we say that
14:42actually we spend most of the time in home.
14:45Actually hospitals, for all doctors,
14:48hospitals are our home
14:49because our home is only our second home.
14:51Hospital is our primary home.
14:52But even in that home,
14:54a poor girl on duty was raped and murdered.
14:56That indicates that
14:58our life is not safe in hospital.
15:02No safety, no duty.
