Letter / Rajkot: Residents of the doctor in big cities, except Ahmedabad, took off the strike during their week on Thursday, many with the relief of thousands of patients facing great difficulties in the state managed hospital.
However, the doctor claimed that they claimed that they had been guaranteed to be a profitable decision by the government after they agreed to call on strike.
“We have assured that some of our demands will be received while some decisions that support doctors will be taken after discussion.
We have continued the assignment from 11am on Thursday,” said a leader of the Junior Doctor Association, NCH.
Doctor Jamnagar, Rajkot and Bhavnagar also called for strikes after guarantees from Deputy Minister of Nitin Patel.
The doctors continued the assignment from Thursday morning in their respective civil hospitals.
According to the doctor in Jamnagar, they had a telephone conversation last night with Patel through the mediation of local BJP leaders where Patel gave their guarantees.
Pravi Kothari, a doctor Rajkot said, “We have received oral guarantees but did not get the same in writing so that the doctors at Ahmedabad continued the strike while the other five medical universities called on strike and continued their duties.” About 1,100 doctors in Three Saurashtra medical colleges were on strike for the past week working in the hospital.
