Gujarat: Govt doctors to go on strike from today

AHMEDABAD: The pending issues of the teaching staff at government-run medical colleges have not been resolved in the stipulated time, so the doctors have called for a strike from Monday.

About 10,000 doctors associated with various organizations will participate in the strike, senior doctors said.

At BJ Medical College, doctors will gather outside the college and start the protest at 9.30am, said organizers. “We had tried to urge the authorities to revoke the order of November 22 — which is the polar opposite of the resolution of May 16 when the government of the day had accepted our valid points,” said a Gujarat Medical Teachers Association (GMTA) member from Ahmedabad.

The staff will submit a memorandum to their respective deans, said the organizers.
