Sir,
The brutal rape and murder of a lady doctor at R.G. Kar Medical College and Hospital in Kolkata has brought back the painful memory of nurse Aruna Shanbaug, who became a victim of sexual assault and failed murder attempt at KEM Hospital in Mumbai, way back in 1973. She was in a vegetative state till May 2015, for 42 years, caringly attended by the nurses of the same hospital, till her death.
