Cops and doctors enter into a scuffle in Delhi. Manas Ranjan Bhui
New Delhi, December 27
A protest by a large number of resident doctors in Delhi over delay in NEET-PG 2021 counselling on Monday took a dramatic turn, as medics and police personnel had a face-off, with both sides claiming several persons got injured in the melee.
The Federation of Resident Doctors’ Association (FORDA) said several of its members were “detained” when they tried to hold a protest march from Maulana Azad Medical College to the Supreme Court.
FORDA president Manish claimed that resident doctors of a large number of major hospitals on Monday “returned their apron (lab coat) in a symbolic gesture of rejection of services”.
