Bhopal (Madhya Pradesh): Days lead by the horrifying incident that took place at the RG Kar Medical College, protests all around the state of Madhya Pradesh have risen. The Junior Doctors Association (JUDA) has written a letter to chief minister Mohan Yadav, deputy chief minister (health minister) Rajendra Shukla, and Gandhi Medical College (GMC), Bhopal.
As per the letter, JUDA has decided to shut down all elective services (OPDs, elective OTs, ward duties, and lab services) effective immediately. The emergency services will continue to be functional as usual. However, if demands are not met, JUDA Bhopal will be forced to resort to completely shutting off all emergency as well as elective services.
