The bench was told by the counsel for resident doctors at AIIMS Nagpur that they are being victimised for protests over the Kolkata rape-murder case.
Here are the top courts:
- The concerns of the doctors have to be addressed by the committee…there’s one thing about the committee that it has lot of female members on the committee so that voices can be heard.
- “Once they get back to duty, we will prevail upon authorities to not take adverse action. How will public health infrastructure run if the doctors do not work,” the bench, said.
