"Generic Letters, No Legal Value": Bengal On 'Mass Resignations' By Doctors
NDTV
Over 200 senior doctors from hospitals in Kolkata and other parts of West Bengal submitted 'resignations' after some junior doctors began a fast unto death on October 5.
The 'mass resignations' of senior doctors in support of their junior colleagues are generic letters and have no legal value, the West Bengal government said on Saturday. Junior doctors in the state have been staging protests since the rape and murder of a trainee doctor at Kolkata's RG Kar Medical College and Hospital in August and some of them are also on a fast-unto-death.
Over 200 senior doctors from the RG Kar Hospital and other government-run hospitals in Kolkata and other parts of West Bengal submitted 'mass resignations' this week in the wake of the indefinite fast being held by some junior doctors in the state capital and Siliguri since October 5. The number of fasting doctors swelled to 10 with two of their colleagues joining them on Saturday.
Several of the senior doctors have clarified that their resignations were "symbolic" and they have been treating patients, ensuring that healthcare services are not affected during the Durga Puja celebrations.
