Jharkhand Doctors Call Off Strike After Accused In Pediatrician Assault Case Arrested

Doctors in Jharkhand have withdrawn their call to boycott work hours after the stir began on Friday, as four people accused of assaulting a pediatrician in Jamshedpur were arrested, police said.?

A senior pediatrician of Kamlesh Oraon of Mahatma Gandhi Memorial Medical College Hospital (MGMMCH) in Jamshedpur was allegedly attacked by attendants following the death of child on Monday night.?

“The four accused have been arrested. Formalities to send them to jail are being completed,” East Singhbhum (Rural) SP Rishabh Garg told PTI.

He said a special investigation team (SIT) nabbed the accused late on Thursday.

Members of the state wing of Indian Medical Association and Jharkhand Health Service Association (JHSA) had given the call to boycott work from 6 am on Friday.

An IMA official said around 14,000 doctors of government and private hospitals in the state took part in the agitation. Emergency services, however, were unaffected, he said.

The OPD services at MGMMCH, Ranchi’s Rajendra Institute of Medical Sciences and Dhanbad’s Saheed Nirmal Mahto Medical College & Hospital were disrupted for two hours due to the stir, officials said.

“We decided to call off the agitation after our demand for arresting the culprits was met,” Jharkhand IMA president A K Singh told PTI.

“We also urge the government to implement the Medical Protection Act (MPA) for the benefit of doctors and patients at the earliest,” he added.
