Resident doctors’ demands are not justified – Health Ministry
Representatives of many resident doctors met a senior official of the Health Ministry today. 26 states already have laws for the protection of healthcare workers. In which there is a provision of punishment from 3 years to 10 years. The government explained to the doctors that the ordinance would not be of any use. The demands of resident doctors are not justified. Whatever the doctors are demanding is not covered in the laws of the states.
