Private Hospital doctors stage 24-Hour protest over Homeopath-Allopath Row
Homeopath-Allopath Standoff: Private Hospital doctors stage 24-Hour protest
Several doctors from private hospitals, clinics and nursing homes across the city have staged a protest against the Maharashtra Medical Council's (MMC) decision to grant registration to homoeopathic practitioners who have completed the bridge course-Certificate Course in Modern Pharmacology (CCMP), allowing them to practice allopathy.
As part of the protest, private healthcare facilities are shut for 24 hours today. While outpatient departments (OPDs) are closed, emergency, maternity, ICU and ambulance services will continue as usual.
Extending support to the protesting doctors, the Maharashtra Association of Resident Doctors (Central MARD) has formally joined the protest. The association leaders have stated that a statewide agitation will be held if the government fails to withdraw the notification.
