Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) has suspended the licenses of four doctors at Mumbai's Nair Hospital in connection to suicide of tribal doctor Payal Tadvi over ragging last Wednesday. It has been alleged that for many months, these three senior female doctors were harassing her over her caste identity and tribal background. She was also teased regularly regarding the same on WhatsApp groups.Weary of all the harassment, Dr Tadvi had committed suicide. After the incident, protest movements had started outside Nair hospital, backed by Dr Tadvi's family who called her death 'institutional murder'. Since the last four days, the movement had constantly been growing louder and making itself heard, demanding justice for Dr Payal Tadvi's death.
