The case involving the death of a doctor at Kolkata's RG Kar Medical College has taken a new turn, according to Jagonews24.com. The report comes as the second anniversary of the incident was observed on Monday, August 10, 2026.
The anniversary was marked with two minutes of silence at hospitals across the city, timed to begin at 11 a.m., as reported by Ei Samay. The observance coincided with fresh developments in the legal proceedings, including a new case being registered on the orders of the state's chief minister, according to Anandabazar Patrika.
The mother of the deceased doctor made a notable statement during the anniversary, saying she is not a victim but the mother of a doctor, as reported by Anandabazar Patrika. Her comments add a personal dimension to the ongoing public discourse surrounding the case.
Questions have also been raised about the Central Bureau of Investigation's handling of the probe, with Inscript reporting on why the CBI investigation faces scrutiny. Additionally, AajTak Bangla reported that the state health minister has suggested the possibility of the chief minister being questioned as part of the investigation.
The case has drawn widespread attention since the incident occurred, with the investigation shifting between different agencies. The latest developments indicate the case remains active, with both legal and political dimensions continuing to evolve.
As the second anniversary passes, the focus now turns to whether the newly ordered case will lead to further arrests or revelations. The coming weeks will show how the CBI responds to the growing questions about its investigation and whether the chief minister's questioning becomes a reality.
