Kolkata: The protesting Junior doctors in West Benagal said they will continue their strike till all their demands are met, they also sought fresh talks with the state government. The doctors announced their decision following a five-hour governing body meeting.
The state also removed two senior health department officials, acceding to the medics’ demands.
According to the PTI report, the doctors made the announcement following the conclusion of their governing body meeting, which had started around 6.30 pm and ended at around 1 AM early Wednesday.
"Till all our demands are met with, the agitation and cease work will continue. We want fresh talks with the state government," a doctor said at a press conference.
The state government appointed Verma as the new city police commissioner a day after Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee held a meeting with the agitating junior doctors to resolve the more than a month-long impasse over the RG Kar hospital incident.
