Rajasthan doctors call off strike after meeting with Health Minister
Jaipur: The Rajasthan striking doctors called off the strike after twelve days of protest against the government for not fulfilling their demands. The state doctors called off the strike after a meeting with Health Minister.
The strike, which had badly affected medical services in the state since December 16, was called off after the BJP government assured the doctors to look into their demands and withdraw action against them.
A meeting was held between a delegation of doctors led by Ajay Chaudhary, president of All-Rajasthan In-service Doctors Association (ARISDA), and state Health Minister Kali Charan Saraf, Transport Minister Yunus Khan, BJP state president Ashok Parnami and other officers here.
"We are happy that the government accepted our demands and got ready to withdraw vindictive action against the doctors, therefore, we are calling off the strike," Chaudhary told reporters after the meeting which lasted for nearly eight hours.
