India court orders doctors' safety panel after rape, murder
India’s top court has ordered a national task force of doctors to make recommendations on safety to be established. It comes after the rape and murder of a trainee doctor in Kolkata sparked nationwide protests.
India’s Supreme Court on Tuesday ruled that a nine-member task force should be set up to map out regulations governing safe work spaces for doctors.
The decree came days after the rape and murder of a 31-year-old trainee doctor that led to protests across the country.
