Medicos to withdraw all services including emergency care over stalemate on PG admissions
The Federation of Resident Doctors’ Association (FORDA) has written to the Health Ministry on Thursday announcing its decision of “withdrawal from all services (including emergency services)” by resident doctors in healthcare institutions from December 17 (Friday).
Doctors are demanding expediting of the NEET-PG 2021 counselling and admission which has left nearly 50,000 aspirants in the lurch.
“The overburdened and exhausted resident doctors of the nation have been protesting since November 27, 2021, against the multiple delays and postponement of NEET-PG 2021 counselling which has led to non-admission of fresh batch of resident doctors for the current academic year,” said FORDA president, Dr. Manish.
