Hyderabad: Junior doctors of Osmania and Gandhi hospitals are up in arms once again demanding that the government take immediate measures to provide proper security for them when on duty.During last one week, two incidents of physical attack on junior doctors by the relatives of patients in Osmania General Hospital and one attack on junior doctors at Gandhi Hospital on Wednesday forced them to approach State Health minister C Lakshma Reddy and seek his intervention.
Two relatives of a deceased boy were taken into custody after they allegedly attacked attending junior doctors at Gandhi Hospital. They alleged negligence from hospital staff resulting in boy’s death. According to police a14-year-old boy Md Owaisi, a resident of Chilkalguda, who was admitted to the hospital on Tuesday, died on Wednesday while undergoing treatment.
The parents and relatives alleged that the boy died due to negligence of the hospital authorities. During the ensuing heated argument, two of his relatives Shamshuddin, 45 and Saddam, 25, manhandled two of the attending junior doctors of Gandhi Hospital who received grave injuries and undergoing treatment.
The Chilkalguda police registered case under Section 353 and 506 of IPC and 3 & 4 of AP Ordinance for the violence against doctors and medical establishment against the duo. In Osmania Hospital, a group of Nigerians attacked junior doctors without any provocation.
The Health Minister assured a delegation of Telangana Junior Doctors Association (TJUDA) that the Special Protection Force (SPF) would be deployed within a week. The junior doctors told the Minister that similar promises were made in the past as well, but so far nothing had happened. When some serious incident takes place, a police post is set up and later that disappears, they told the Minister.
