AIIMS resident docs wear helmets in support of strike

New Delhi: Around 1,200 resident doctors of AIIMS turned up on duty at the emergency department wearing helmets in support to their striking counterparts in Maharashtra.
Over 4,000 resident doctors in Maharashtra have been staying away from work since Monday demanding better security at hospitals in the wake of a string of attacks on their colleagues.
"Nobody bothers about resident doctors who were brutally beaten up. Instead of providing security to resident doctors at their workplace, the government is threatening them of deducting their salaries and throwing them out of their hostels," president of Resident doctors' Association of AIIMS Dr Vijay Gurjar said.
