Kerala doctors to start non-cooperation strike from tomorrow

Services in government hospitals in Kerala are likely to be affected with doctors starting a 'non-cooperation' strike from tomorrow in support of their various demands including rectifying anomalies in recent wage revision.

Doctors affiliated to the Kerala Government Medical Officers Association would keep away from various government programmes but would not halt treatment to patients, the Association said.

Meanwhile, the state government declared dies non (principle of no-work-no-pay) to counter the stir, a release said.

The doctors demands also include enhancing retirement age.
