The union of Telangana junior doctors has announced that their strike will continue. They said their recent talks with the government had failed. The junior doctors held talks with DME Ramesh Reddy.
However, the junior doctors announced that their demands had not been properly assured by the government. The strike would continue as usual from tomorrow. They are adamant that they will take up their duties only after receiving a written assurance from the government.
Speaking to the media, the Junior doctors said, “If any of us dies with covid, we will not get any ex gratia from the state government and there is no surety that beds will be given to infected medical staff in NIMS.
There was no proper assurance from the government. We will officially join the duties if we get a written assurance from the government.” It remains to be seen how CM KCR would react to this strike.
