Chandigarh: The Physiotherapists Association at the Postgraduate Institute of Medical Education and Research (PGIMER), Chandigarh, has issued a firm ultimatum to the administration, warning of a peaceful protest if their pending demands are not addressed within 15 days. The decision comes amid growing discontent among physiotherapy staff over worsening working conditions, institutional apathy, and mounting mental stress.

In a letter submitted to the PGIMER Director on May 26, the association highlighted a deteriorating work atmosphere, which it claims is being exacerbated by an Additional Professor in the Department of Physical and Rehabilitation Medicine (PRM). The letter specifically accused her of contributing to a hostile working environment, reports The Tribune.
