In latest news from Doon, visibly worried over the brutal rape and murder of a trainee doctor at R G Kar Medical College and Hospital,, the State health secretary R Rajesh Kumar said that they are going to appeal to the  State’s home secretary and the DGP police to set up a police post for the Government Doon Medical College (GDMC).

While the woman doctors, nurses and staffer tied rakhi or protective threads round the senior health officer’s wrist on the occasion of Raksha Bandhan, he assured complete protection to them. He further said that they would further request the administration and police to make sure that woman police personnel are deployed at it in adequate number to instil security in the women doctors, staffers and nurses.

Earlier, feeling insecure, the women doctors and staffers requested the health secretary to see to it that one male and one female police personnel remain posted at the government health facility 24 hours to prevent recurrence of Kolkata-type incident here.
