BENGALURU: Radhika, a 28-year-old Indian doctor, always wanted to save lives. However, since her colleague was brutally raped and killed, her personal safety has grown more and more important.
The body of a 31-year-old woman doctor was discovered earlier this month, bruised and bloodied, at the government-run hospital where Radhika works in the eastern city of Kolkata, igniting outrage.
Although the incident resulted in protests and medical strikes, it also focused outrage on the lack of procedures that allow female doctors to operate without fear. One guy has been imprisoned as a result of the attack.
“Two days prior to this incident, I was working at night at RG Kar Medical College and Hospital in Kolkata,” Radhika stated.
“What she did is what any of us do — resting whenever, wherever we can” .
