The junior doctors, protesting against the rape and murder, complained that these unlicensed shops were mainly the assembly point of anti-social elements from outside which vitiated the ambience within the hospital premises.
Sources in R G Kar said that the unlicensed shops’ issue came up for discussion at the meeting of the College Council on Thursday, where a number of those present in the meeting became vocal about removing such unlicensed entities from within the medical college & hospital
