Doctors announce unique 'OPD' protest against the rape and murder case in Kolkata Hospital. Starting today, doctors of AIIMS and other Delhi hospitals will hold a unique protest against the Kolkata rape-murder case. The medics will protest by providing OPD services on the road in front of the Union Health Ministry office in Delhi. However, a press release has clarified that emergency services will continue as before at hospitals. Furthermore, the RDA requested the govt to provide necessary arrangements for the outpatient services. Earlier, a 24-hour nationwide strike was called by the IMA that ended on Sunday at 6 am. Protesting doctors are demanding justice and urgent reforms, including the implementation of a central law to protect healthcare professionals from workplace violence.
