The brutal rape and murder of a doctor at Kolkata's RG Kar Medical College has sparked nationwide outrage and protests. The Calcutta High Court has ordered a CBI investigation into the case. Former India captain Sourav Ganguly also reacted on the incident by urging CBI to give such punishment that no one dares to commit such a crime again in their life.
"I told that last Sunday, I don't know how it was construed or was interpreted. I have said it earlier also, it's a terrible thing. Now CBI, police are investigating the matter. Its very shameful what has happened. I hope that CBI, who are investigating the matter, once they find the culprit strict punishment should be given. The punishment should be such that no one dares to commit such crime again in their life. That is important. Punishment has to be severe," Sourav Ganguly said to reporters.
This is very sad and hurting. So I think if anyone will be harassed like this everyone will protest and this will be the repercussions.

As a father I will say it's terrible and shameful. Everyone is fighting for this. The doctor community is an important community so everyone should get treatment during emergencies that is also important.
In response to the horrific rape and murder of a trainee doctor in Kolkata, the Indian Medical Association (IMA) has called for a nationwide strike. Routine outpatient services and elective surgeries will be suspended, but emergency care will continue uninterrupted.
