AIIMS and Safdarjung Doctors Request Inquiry into Jantar Mantar Events and Wangchuk Hospitalisation
The Resident Doctors' Associations of AIIMS and Safdarjung Hospital have appealed to President Droupadi Murmu for an independent, time-bound inquiry into the July 20 events at Jantar Mantar, where police used force against peaceful protesters. They raised concerns over videos showing police with covered faces and questioned the handling of dissent. The associations also highlighted reports that activist Sonam Wangchuk was not allowed to leave Safdarjung Hospital despite seeking Leave Against Medical Advice, emphasizing patient autonomy and rights under medical ethics and the Constitution.
