Thiruvananthapuram: Dissatisfied with the constant delay in implementing the pay revision of doctors, the faculty members of State Government Medical Colleges have decided to go on strike from November.
The doctors coming under the banner of Kerala Government Medical College Teachers' Association (KGMCTA) have decided to stage a token strike at all the medical college premises from tomorrow.
The protesting doctors will also arrange protest marches to the offices of the Principals of all Government Medical Colleges and stage a dharna.
In a recent press release, KGMCTA stated, " Though the pay revision of medical college faculty was supposed to be implemented in 2016 but the Government delayed it for four years till 2020. After months of agitation by the doctors, the pay revision order was issued in September last year but to date, the vast majority of medical college teachers have not even been issued a pay slip based on their revised salaries."
