The RDA further endorsed the demands made by Telangana Junior Doctors Association (T-JUDA) which include - filing a case against the perpetrators of violence, CRPF deployment to ensure doctors are able to safely work, provision of PPE to all health care providers and assurance from Home Minister and Chief Minister on this issue.
The Director of Public Health and Family Welfare of the government of Telangana also condemned the brutal behaviour of the patient attendants at Gandhi Hospital in Secunderabad against a Post Graduate Resident doctor.
