You will get justice: Bengal Guv CV Ananda Bose to RG Kar protesting students over vandalisation of hospital
Kolkata/IBNS: West Bengal Governor CV Ananda Bose has assured students, who are protesting against the rape and murder of 31-year-old lady trainee doctor, of justice after hundreds of miscreants vandalised the hospital displacing the agitators last night.
Bose entered the Emergency Building, took stock of the situation and interacted with the protesting students on the site.
"You will get justice. I have come here to listen to you personally. I am with you. We will fight it out and we shall overcome. We will not allow these ghastly things to be done," the Governor told the protesting students.
Some miscreants suddenly entered the Emergency building and resorted to violence at a time thousands of women and men took the streets across West Bengal and outside demanding justice for the RG Kar case.
The agitating doctors had to flee owing to the sudden clashes. Media personnel were attacked.

The miscreants vandalised the stage where the protest was taking place. They even overturned the police vehicles.
Some police personnel also received injuries. The police had to resort to using tear gas to disperse off the crowd.
The situation turned grim amid the massive protest organised called 'Relcaim The Night' to seek justice over the rape and murder of a 31-year-old trainee lady doctor at Kolkata's state-run RG Kar Medical College and Hospital and its alleged cover-up that triggered a tsunami of anger against the authorities.
Women and men across West Bengal took to the streets on the eve of Independence Day.
As people started gathering in protest points across Kolkata from Jadavpur to Behala and Academy of Fine Arts, the outcry for justice grew loud.
At home, people are blowing conch shells at the same time to register their protest against the authorities.
