Patients Bear The Brunt Of Doctor’s Strik

"For the last two days, I had to return from both Safdarjung and AIIMS. Today I am not in a mood to return. His condition is becoming worse and I will not go without showing my son to doctors," she said outside the Sardarjung Hospital's emergency ward, tears rolling down her cheeks.

The Sardarjung Hospital and AIIMS are located close to one another, separated by a busy road. So patients run from one place to another, praying they would get some attention somewhere.

At the Guru Teg Bahadur hospital in east Delhi, only 70 doctors have been working as against a total strength of 580 doctors.

"It's certainly a tough situation. Due fewer doctors, the patients are not completely satisfied with our treatment. We hope things will improve soon," said a senior doctor at GTB.

Health Minister A. Ramadoss Wednesday told reporters that notices had been sent to senior resident doctors to join work at the earliest.

"We have warned resident doctors that they will lose their jobs if they don't rejoin work. We have also asked railway and army doctors to lend their support to the hospitals in Delhi," Ramadoss said.

Responding to the health ministry's direction, 70 doctors have rejoined duty at Safdarjung Hospital and 81 at the Ram Manohar Lohia hospital in the heart of the city.

But most resident doctors are in no mood to relent.

"We are not going to call off our strike till a total rollback decision is conveyed to us. Now the ball is in the government's court, and we expect the prime minister to come out with a solution," said Arun Wadhawan, a member of the resident doctors association at the University College of Medical Sciences (UCMS).
