Imphal, February 18 2023:
Manipur Government Services' Federation (MSF) has urged the government to find an immediate amicable and acceptable solution to the present situation by fulfilling the demands and negotiating with the striking doctors in the larger interest of the people of the state.
In a release, Federation president Dr M Rajendra Singh pointed out that the indefinite shutdown of health services, district hospitals and health centres from February 14 as a part of the agitation of All Manipur Health Services Doctors' Association is caused immense suffering to the public.
While asserting that main demands of the doctors namely implementation of transfer & posting policy, time-bound promotion, full entitlement of NPA as per the 7th Pay Commission, etc., are just and legitimate demands, the president informed that the Federation in its GB meeting held on Saturday has resolved to extend solidarity to the striking doctors.
