Dr. Sandip Ghosh, the former Principal of RG Kar Medical College, is embroiled in a controversy involving several serious allegations. These include the mismanagement of dead bodies, which suggests improper handling or disposal practices within the hospital. Additionally, there are accusations that Dr. Ghosh was involved in the illegal sale of biomedical waste, a practice that not only violates medical and environmental regulations but also poses significant public health risks. Furthermore, Dr. Ghosh is accused of misusing funds allocated to the institution, potentially diverting resources meant for medical and educational purposes for unauthorized or personal use.

These allegations have caused significant concern, leading to a legal investigation and widespread public and media scrutiny. If proven true, such actions would represent a severe breach of professional and ethical standards, with serious legal and professional consequences for Dr. Ghosh. The case has attracted considerable attention, highlighting issues of corruption and malpractice within the medical field.

The Calcutta High Court recently declined to issue a gag order in response to a plea by Dr. Sandip Ghosh, the former Principal of RG Kar Medical College, who sought to restrain media coverage of his ongoing legal proceedings. Dr. Ghosh alleged that the media’s extensive reporting had created a “media trial” atmosphere, potentially influencing public opinion and jeopardizing his right to a fair trial.

In its decision, the court emphasized the importance of maintaining press freedom, asserting that the media plays a critical role in keeping the public informed about matters of significant public interest. The court acknowledged the concerns raised by Dr. Ghosh but ultimately concluded that issuing a gag order would be an excessive measure. This ruling allows the media to continue covering the case, while the court maintains its responsibility to ensure that the legal process remains fair and unbiased.

The decision highlights the delicate balance between an individual’s right to a fair trial and the media’s role in a democratic society.

This Supreme Court session, presided over by Chief Justice DY Chandrachud, addressed the systemic issue of safety for doctors in India, triggered by the horrific r**e and murder of a doctor at RG Kar Medical College and Hospital in Kolkata. Senior Advocates Kapil Sibal, Maninder Singh, AM Singhvi, and Vijay Hansaria were present, alongside Solicitor General Tushar Mehta.

The court emphasized the dire need for improved safety conditions in hospitals, particularly for women doctors, highlighting the absence of safe work environments and the long hours young doctors are subjected to without adequate facilities. The bench expressed deep concern over the immediate transfer of the principal involved in the case to another college, despite ongoing scrutiny.

A National Task Force was established, comprising leading doctors and government officials, to devise a national protocol ensuring the safety of medical professionals. The court also condemned the circulation of the victim’s photos and videos, noting this as a grave violation of dignity.

What are your views on this?

The controversy has sparked many questions directed at the IFA!

In the second half of the match, ASOS Rainbow AC's player was clearly fouled inside the box. However, the referee awarded a free kick just outside the penalty area. This decision, which should have resulted in a penalty kick, was deemed a glaring mistake by the club and its supporters.
