Odisha doctors give one-month ultimatum to address unmet demands - Video

Frustrated by ongoing discussions with the state government that have not led to any concrete action yet, doctors under the Odisha Medical Services Association (OMSA) have warned the state government that they may cease work and submit mass resignations if their seven-point charter of demands is not fulfilled within a month.

Expressing strong dissatisfaction, the doctors issued an ultimatum, stating that the state government has failed to address their demands despite numerous rounds of discussions. Frustated by the lack of progress, they warned that if their demands are not addressed, over 5,000 doctors across the state will submit mass resignations by June 20. Still, they will begin boycotting outpatient services on Sundays and holidays starting May 20, excluding emergency duties.
