Dhanbad: In a shocking incident, a female junior doctor in the surgery ward of Shahid Nirmal Mahto Medical College Hospital (SNMMCH) in Jharkhand's Dhanbad was allegedly verbally abused and threatened by an aide of the local BJP MP, who was reportedly intoxicated.
In response, nearly 50 junior doctors boycotted work, paralysing the outpatient department (OPD) services, SNMMCH superintendent Dr DK Gindauria told PTI.
Extending solidarity with their colleagues in Dhanbad, junior doctors at RIMS Ranchi, MGMMCH Jamshedpur, PJMCH Dumka, SBMCH Hazaribagh and MMCH Palamu attended work wearing black badges.
Junior Doctors Network (JDN) state general secretary Raghvendra Kumar said it was a serious matter and the fraternity would not accept it silently.
