Silchar Medical College and Hospital has announced the cancellation of previous guidelines issued in response to the RG Kar Medical College & Hospital rape-murder case. The college has stated that a new advisory will be introduced soon. The earlier advisory, which was directed at female doctors, students, and all healthcare workers, recommended avoiding "isolated, poorly lit, and sparsely populated areas" on the campus. It also suggested that female personnel should "avoid situations where they are alone" whenever possible. The advisory faced significant criticism for effectively placing the burden of safety on female staff and students rather than addressing the root causes of violence and ensuring a safer environment for everyone.
