The junior doctors contend that their protest is being held in view of the Covid-induced havoc on the healthcare system. At such a time, they need all hands on deck and the legal deadlock is preventing thousands of young doctors from joining the workforce.
The junior doctors protesting in Delhi over the delay in college allotments of postgraduate medical students have been told that they cannot continue in view of the Yellow Alert declared yesterday. The doctors now demand that the Delhi Police apologise in writing over the face-off on Sunday and that their strike is "still on". A final call will be taken at a meeting at 1 pm, the Federation of Resident Doctors' Association or FORDA has said.
"We have told the doctors that they cannot continue the strike. Yellow alert has been issued regarding Covid in Delhi and under the DDMA Act, crowds are not allowed," said senior Delhi Police officer BS Yadav. "We have requested the doctors to end the strike due to Corona," he added.
Admitting that the police have contacted them over the Yellow Alert, Dr Manish, the chief of FORDA, told NDTV, "Our strike is still on. We are demanding that Delhi Police apologise to us in writing. We will meet at 1-o'clock to decide whether to continue the strike or to end it," he added.
