The center highlighted the West Bengal state Government’s failure to provide logistical support to the CISF, which is responsible for taking care of the security at RG Kar Medical College.

The Kolkata High Court has taken the case from the local police and has transferred it to the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI). But nearly one month into the CBI’s probe only one arrest has been made so far.
