BJP has accused and held TMC goons responsible for the incident, while TMC leader Saugata Roy said, ‘We are protecting the doctors’. (If the doctors are receiving protection, how come they are being thrashed ? One can imagine, how people speaking upfront lies, must be carrying out their social service – Editor)
