Government doctors wear ‘demand badges’ to work

Doctors affiliated to the Federation of Government Doctors Association (FOGDA) launched a protest on Wednesday by wearing ‘demand badges’ to work. They will continue wearing the badges till February 28 to draw the attention of the State government to their pending demands. P.

One of the demands was pay band-4 at 12 years of service.
