North 24 Parganas, September 9: The mother of the deceased trainee doctor from Kolkata's RG Kar Medical College has accused West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee of lying about not offering financial compensation. On Monday, she refuted the CM's claim, stating that Banerjee did offer money following her daughter's tragic death.

"The Chief Minister is lying. My daughter will not return. Would I lie in her name? The Chief Minister told us that we would receive money and suggested that we create something in our daughter's memory. I responded that I would come to her office to collect the money once my daughter gets justice," the victim's mother told ANI. ‘Show Me Proof’: Mamata Banerjee Refutes Allegations of Offering Money to Parents of Junior Doctor Who Was Raped and Killed at RG Kar Hospital.

Earlier today, CM Mamata Banerjee denied offering any money to the family of the deceased trainee doctor, who was raped and murdered in Kolkata. "I have never offered money to the deceased doctor's family. This is nothing but slander. I only told the deceased doctor's parents that if they wished to do something in their daughter's memory, our government would support them. Kolkata Commissioner of Police, Vineet Goyal, offered to resign following the RG Kar protests, but we need someone knowledgeable in law and order as Durga Puja approaches," she said.

The victim's cousin also said that the Chief Minister personally offered financial compensation to the family. "The Chief Minister herself offered financial compensation. She denied that money was offered by the police. I'm still saying with responsibility that the Chief Minister offered money," the cousin said. CM Banerjee also encouraged people to "return to festivities" as Durga Puja nears and urged junior doctors to resume their duties as soon as possible.

In response, the victim's mother expressed that this request seemed inhuman to her. "Durga Puja is celebrated in my house too; my daughter used to handle it herself. But Durga Puja will never be celebrated in my house again. The light in my home is out. How can I ask people to return to the festival?" she said. She further questioned, "If such an incident had happened in the Chief Minister's family, would she have said this?"

Victim’s Mother Says Mamata Banerjee is Lying 

The victim's mother also asserted that they would continue their movement until justice is served. The second-year postgraduate medical student was raped and murdered inside the seminar hall of RG Kar Medical College on August 9. On Monday, the Supreme Court reminded the authorities that no action should be taken against doctors who return to work by tomorrow at 5 pm while hearing the case related to the rape and murder of a trainee doctor at Kolkata's RG Kar Medical College and Hospital.

However, the court noted that if the doctors fail to do so, the court will not be able to restrain the state government, and further absence from work might lead to disciplinary action against them.
