Govt. issues order hiking stipend by 15%
Resident senior and junior doctors who abstained from elective duties at government hospitals across the State on Wednesday and emergencies on Thursday called off their agitation in the night.
The strike was withdrawn after the government issued an order enhancing the stipend of senior residents by 15 %, up from ₹ 70,000 to 85,500 per month with effect from January 1 last. However, the doctors had been demanding the hike from January 2020. The boycott of emergencies by doctors did not have much impact as the government had already made alternative arrangements at all hospitals.
