Negligence in work by RIMS doctors will not be tolerated: Das

Jharkhand Chief Minister Raghubar Das today said the state government will "not tolerate" negligence in work by doctors of the Rajendra Institute of Medical Sciences (RIMS) here.

"Negligence in work will not be tolerated. Doctors or other personnel cannot go on strike, instead they can put their problems before the director (RIMS)," an official release said, quoting Das.

An additional director has been appointed to look management-related issues of the institution, the CM said.

Das said rules laid down by RIMS should be strictly adhered to, and added that doctors will not be allowed to practice in private clinics.

The chief minister also said there has been significant development in the state's healthcare in the past four years.
