Bombay HC directs State Govt to take stern action against doctors not joining duties in tribal areas
Taking note of the fact that specialist doctors are not joining their posts of deputation in the tribal areas of Maharashtra, the Maharashtra High Court on Thursday has directed the State Government for taking stern action against such medical professionals.
The HC bench of acting Chief Justice S.V Gangapurwala and Justice Sandeep V. Marne issued such directions after the State Government informed the bench about issuing show-cause notices to altogether 52 specialist doctors for not reporting to their posts in the Melghat region, which has high number of child deaths occurring as a result of insufficient medical facilities.
