Junior resident doctors have received a pay hike but their seniors have not, despite the increased pandemic workload
The Maharashtra Association of Resident Doctors (MARD) has demanded a pay hike for senior resident doctors across government hospitals. Senior resident doctors said they have neither received a pay hike nor the hazard fund despite working so hard during the COVID-19 pandemic. They have urged the State government to consider their demand, failing which they have threatened to go on a strike next month.More Related News
