Imphal, December 16 2012:
Sections of the practising doctors are planning to launch cease work strike over non payment of salaries to them.
Speaking on behalf of the aggrieved doctors, Dr Kh Robindro contended that due to procedural lapses by the authorities concerned doctors deputed to different health care centres are not issued employee identification number (EIN) consequently affecting their entitlements.
Out of about 217 doctors deputed to Government health care centres many are yet to possess EIN inspite of rendering their services since April this year, said Dr Robindro while asserting that in case suitable measures are not undertaken to release their salaries the doctors would abstain from performing their respective duties.
