A doctor in Thane resigns and leaves the city after being assaulted by a Shiv Sena corporator, according to multiple reports. The incident occurs on July 6 at Shastri Nagar Hospital in Dombivli, which is run by the Kalyan-Dombivli Municipal Corporation. The assault is recorded on video, and the footage triggers public anger and protests, with reports describing a growing backlash against the attack. Following the assault, the doctor steps down from the job and says he is afraid for his safety, indicating he will not return to Thane. One report describes the doctor’s resignation as driven by “a lot of fear,” while another says he will “never go back.”
The accounts agree on the broad timeline—July 6, the location at the municipal hospital in Dombivli, and the doctor’s subsequent resignation and departure from the area—while emphasizing that the assault is captured on video and that it leads to protests.
