Earlier this month, resident doctors went on an indefinite strike on August 12 nationwide after the body of a trainee doctor was found on the premises of a state-run hospital in Kolkata on the morning of August 9.
Following the incident, doctors held the strike for 11 consecutive days, during which all elective services, wards, and OPDs were suspended.
However, after the Supreme Court hearing last Thursday, the doctors called off their strike, stating, “We are resuming duties following the Supreme Court’s appeal, assurances, and intervention in the RG Kar incident and the safety of doctors. We commend the court’s action and call for adherence to its directives.”
