AIIMS resident doctors rue PMs remarks in London

New Delhi: Flaying Prime Minister Narendra Modis reported remarks in London last week on alleged nexus between doctors and pharma companies, the AIIMS resident doctors association today rued that the PM used international platform to curse his "hardworking and dedicated fraternity."

"The RDA, AIIMS strongly condemns PM Modiji?s remark on doctors that we are getting foreign trips in reward of writing costly medicines. This is utterly shameful to generalize and paint black whole medical fraternity, that too on an international forum," the RDA said.

"This is the first time when a PM of any country used international platform to curse his hardworking and dedicated citizens," said Harjit Singh Bhatti, AIIMS RDA president.

The AIIMS RDA has also written to the Prime Minister over the issue expressing its anguish, urging him to put on a white apron and spend a day as a doctor in a government hospital with them to understand the level of stress they face.
