New Delhi: Senior doctors of North Delhi Municipal
Corporation have suspended their plan to go on strike from Monday over pending
salaries and other benefits.
“We have unanimously decided to defer the strike till
further notice in general public interest. If our pending salaries, enhanced
dearness allowance, 7th Pay Commission arrears pending since 2017 and promotion
arrears pending since last many years are not paid by December 31, then we
shall be compelled to resume the protest,” read a press statement issued by
Municipal Corporation Doctors’ Association.
However, the resident doctors’ association of Kasturba
Hospital has decided to continue with their strike. “We want an official order
issued for payment of DA as soon as possible,” said Dr Sunil Kumar, president
of the association.
A north corporation official claimed, the doctors withdrew
their strike following assurances over DA and release of pending salaries. “We
will meet the para medical staff and nurses of Hindu Rao on Monday,” said
standing committee chairman Jogi Ram Jain.
