LAHORE (Dunya News) - Young Doctors Association’s (YDA) strike has continued on eighth day in different cities of Punjab over trying to arrest vice-president of the association, Dr Atif.
According to details, the patients are facing severe difficulties due to closure of OPDs at Services Hospital in Lahore.
The protesting doctors have warned of shutting down the emergencies and OPDs of the hospitals if government fails to address their demands.
Last week, the emergency ward of the hospital was shut down after a clash between YDA and anti-corruption officials.
According to YDA spokesman, the anti-corruption officials tortured vice-president of the association, Dr Atif, at the emergency ward and tried to take Dr Atif with them.
On the other hand, an anti-corruption department spokesman informed that there are cases against Dr Atif and Dr Salman under Anti-Corruption Act and they went to the hospital to perform their legal duty.
