Security stepped up at Nashik civil hospital

In the wake of attacks on doctors in Maharashtra, security was beefed up at the civil hospital here, a senior police official said today.
"Two guards have been appointed at the civil hospital. Beat-marshals will visit the hospital after every two hours," Nashik Deputy Commissioner of Police Laxmikant Patil told reporters.
The decision to step up security was taken at a meeting between police and hospital authorities last night, said the official.
Resident doctors across Maharashtra resumed duties this morning, ending their five-day protest following directives from the Bombay High Court coupled with assurances from Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis.
