Summary Strike in Balochistan hospitals entered 38th day to protest against kidnapping of doctor.
The doctors have vowed to continue their strike until the dismissal of cases against them along with the fulfillment of their demands.
The emergency services remained suspended in all public hospitals for the fifth consecutive day while the provincial government has sealed all private hospitals.
Meanwhile, the Pakistan Nursing Federation announced to support doctors’ strike. However, they continued their services in public hospitals due to Muharram.
Due to the absence of doctors, patients are forced to move to other provinces for treatment.
