Junior Doctors call off strike..

After a prolonged and much harder way of Strike done by Medicos, finally have called off Strike. Infact the strike went on for a half century days, where the initial days were just considered as slow and yet another situation by government.


The meeting with State Medical related Minister Mr. Kondru Murali, the junior doctors have come into an agreement with Government. The 13 requirements or fundamentals(for agitation) by Junior Doctors were chalked out well by Government and were accepted under Mutual Understand basis.


The prime of 13 being, Increase of Stipend and Modernization of Emergency Departments in Government Hospitals, were accepted by gvt officials after much delay.


Stipend increment was not accepted by Government initially in first meeting conducted a week ago, as government mentioned clearly that each and every medical student is studying Medicine with cost of government and they shouldn't threaten like this.


But, Juniors were on strike spree and continued to boycott and also intensified with boycotting emergency services too. Which made many patients to search for alternate and meanwhile some lost lives too, as the problem was heading towards a massacre. Government invited for another round off talks.


In the talks, government okayed the stipend issue, and said that the increment in stipend would be from April and also accepted and promised to release a package of 65 crore for Modernization of Emergency wards in every government maintained hospital.


Earlier the first round of talks triggered because of many important leaders went on too give support for Medicos when they were on Hunger Strike. Many leaders including YSR CONGRESS pro Mr. Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy, TDP chief Mr. N. Chandra Babu Naidu and TRS supremo Mr. K. Chandrasekhar Rao.


Many students felt that, if any leader in opposition comes to them, then only Government would invite for talks. Definitely they will be trying to pull the leaders well in advance next time. 


Lets hope that Medicos don't go for any more strike and concentrate on their work and studies, which is a very important point as of now.
