Bhubaneswar: The Odisha government issued notice to 120 doctors for staying away from their place of duty for long duration without obtaining necessary permission.
The Health Department warned of disciplinary action if they do not join duty within 15 days from the date of publication of the notice.
The 120 doctors are 'unauthorisedly absent' since before 2014.
"Attempts have been made to ascertain their addresses to communicate with them, but their whereabouts could not be known as they have not given their addresses either to their immediate authorities or to the Director of Health Services or other official agencies," said the notification.
