Taking exception to the junior doctors’ insistence on holding talks on their terms and conditions, West Bengal Chief Secretary Manoj Pant said this attitude does not bode well for a discussion
West Bengal Chief Secretary Manoj Pant on Wednesday (September 11) said despite efforts, the government has failed to elicit a positive response from the junior doctors on protest over the RG Kar rape-murder.
Taking exception to the protesters’ insistence on holding talks on their terms and conditions, Pant said this attitude does not bode well for a discussion. “We have mailed them today as well, we requested them to come and meet us today. We wanted to tell them what we are planning. Unfortunately, there response was not positive. They have sent mail, they want 30 people to be present…No discussion can take place with condition. We thought we will discuss openly. This attitude is not correct,” he said in a press conference.
