Doctors body says protesters thrashed, abused; Delhi police deny allegations
Resident doctors, who have been boycotting work as a protest against delay in PG NEET counselling, on Monday said they were “brutally thrashed, dragged, and detained” by the Delhi Police.
The doctors were marching towards the Supreme Court when they were stopped by the police near ITO in the afternoon. They were detained and later released, a statement from the Federation of Resident Doctors’ Association (FORDA) said.
“There will be a complete shutdown of all healthcare institutions today onwards. We strongly condemn this brutality and demand immediate release of our FORDA representatives and resident doctors,” the statement said.
