Patna, (Bihar Times): Within four days chief minister
Nitish Kumar issued another stern warning to the
junior doctors of the Patna Medical College Hospital.
It was on Friday that the chief minister gave the
first ultimatum to the doctors.
Talking to newsmen at the Janata Darbar here on Monday
he said that if the doctors’ criminal acts are proved
their registration might be cancelled and thus they
would not be entitled to practice anywhere in the
future. Without naming any mediator within the
NDA––who want to bring about some compromise between
the doctors and the state government––the chief
minister said his government would not budge on the
issue as the primary duty of doctors is to treat
rather than beat.
Referring to the attack on lensmen he said that in
democracy nobody can imagine of insulating himself or
herself from the media as it plays a very important
role.
Meanwhile, the police are yet to arrest anyone of the
six doctors and X-ray technician, Sudhir Kumar,
involved in the attack on lensmen. Incidentlly some of
the doctors used to live on the campus. Even Sudhir
Kumar and his family used to live in a quarter on the
PMCH campus, but there is nobody left here.
On the other hand the health minister, Nand Kishore
Yadav, back from Delhi after leading an unsuccessful
revolt against the deputy chief minister, Sushil Kumar
Modi, claimed that all the five medical colleges, were
agitation are going on, are functioning normally. He
claimed that on Monday 1035 patients got registered in
the PMCH and 500 in ANMMCH in Gaya.
