Government offers to appoint a committee to examine the working hours of medicos
The postgraduate medical students or junior residents in government medical college hospitals (MCHs) in the State, who have been on an indefinite strike boycotting all hospital services including emergency services (except COVID duty) since the past five days, have decided to continue their strike as the talks with the Health Minister Veena George on Wednesday remained inconclusive.
Talks will, however, continue on Thursday with Additional Chief Secretary (Health) Asha Thomas. “The discussion was productive and we could air all our grievances with the government. However, as no common ground could be reached, we have decided to continue our strike in its current form for the time being, “ Kerala Medical Postgraduates Association State president Ajithra said.

What began as a simple way to stay active soon grew into something larger. The couple converted the garden of their Ashok Nagar residence into a pickleball court, now known as Pickleball Point, envisioning it as a lively space where people from all age groups could gather, play and connect. “It started at home, as something for my husband and me to stay engaged,” she says. “As senior citizens, we wanted to enjoy the energy of people coming in and playing,” she further adds.
