  • 5 years ago
Around 4,000 doctors across Maharashtra have decided to go on an indefinite strike from today to protest against "failure" of state government to fulfil the "long pending" demands of the resident doctors.

"We have been requesting the state government to fulfil our valid demands regarding bond service from a very long time. Despite regular follow ups, the government has failed to meet our demands. This is why, we have decided to go on an indefinite strike from Saturday with a hope that this will opens the eyes of the state government," Medical Association of Resident Doctors (MARD) president Dr Santosh Wakchaure told

All 14 government colleges in Maharashtra and three civic-run hospitals in Mumbai will take part in this protest.
