Withdraw strike by August 20, HC directs striking doctors

Sunday, 18 August 2024 | Staff Reporter | BHOPAL

The Madhya Pradesh High Court has ordered the junior doctors to end their strike. The court said that they should withdraw their strike by August 20.

Earlier, the bench of Acting Chief Justice Sanjeev Sachdeva and Justice Vinay Saraf said that this method of strike is not right at all. If someone is dying, then tell them that they will give medicines after two days? The High Court has advised the doctors to return to work.

Earlier, the Government Autonomous Doctors Federation of Madhya Pradesh said, we want equal laws to be made in the country. We are surprised about the High Court. What does the High Court want, we should get beaten up, die. We don't have rights. We have the right to protest for our safety and the safety of our colleagues. In such a situation, the High Court should understand our point.

Meanwhile, Dr. Anoop Hajela, President of the Association of Health Care Providers of India, MP Chapter (AHPI-MP) said, 'It is requested by the government that the Women Protection Workplace Act should come soon. Today, private hospitals in the entire state have closed routine OPDs, routine surgeries are closed. Only emergency OPD is being seen, so that emergency patients do not face any inconvenience. The High Court's instructions will be followed. Further strategy will be made after the executive meeting.'

Junior Doctors Association spokesperson Dr. Kuldeep Gupta says that this is a movement for the safety of the public and women. We respect and honor the High Court. Whatever guidelines are there, we will work on the future strategy  Jabalpur High Court has ordered the junior doctors to end the strike. The court said that they should come before the court with their complaints. The court will hear the doctors' complaints on August 20. During the hearing, JUDA was seeking assurance from the government. The court said that first end the strike, then the issues will be heard.
